Running `Mix test` does not run from project root about alchemist.vim HOT 8 CLOSED

Heh, I had set autochdir for... some reason. Removing that makes :Mix test behave as expected.

from alchemist.vim.

If you open a test file with vim test/foo_test.exs that behaviour is expected. You can use for example vim-rooter if you want to alter the default vim behaviour regarding cwd handling. My 2 cents is this should not be alchemist.vim's concern.

@killtheliterate it works for me, I'm not sure why it doesn't work in your box, can you do something like this with your project and past the response here:

milad@laptop-2 ~/d/ex_guard (master)> ls -l
total 88
...
-rw-r--r--   1 milad  staff  1163 May  3 22:35 mix.exs
-rw-r--r--   1 milad  staff   179 Mar 20 02:26 mix.lock
...
milad@laptop-2 ~/d/ex_guard (master)> vim -c ":Mix test"

One extra note, Mix command only defined if you don't have any other Mix plugin

@slashmili I think this may be a problem with netrw or something. If I have a file open that lives in the project root, like mix.exs, then :Mix test runs, no problem. If I then open a file that lives in lib, thats when alchemist mentions that it cannot find a mix file.

If I have mix.exs open, and then use either netrw or :e lib/foo.ex to open another file, :Mix test breaks in that scenario as well.

I'll examine my neovim config to see if there is something thats changing directory on file open.

Could you record the cases that you mention with asciinema.org

I see.

Looks like there is something wrong with your vim settings, I did the same thing here : https://asciinema.org/a/40ob1mhx8dcgwb404xf6k5xkj

I'll try fiddling around to see if I can get it working as expected. For reference, here is my .vimrc
