"Unresolved reference: assertThat" on 0.26.1

[dirkluijk]

When upgrading from version 0.25.0 to 0.26.1, I suddenly get this weird compiler error:

/path/to/Test.kt:73:9
Kotlin: Unresolved reference: assertThat

my code just imports

import assertk.assertThat
import assertk.assertions.*

Is the artifact broken?

I had the same issue, found the solution on another project with which I also had the issue.
If you use Maven, use assertk-jvm instead of assertk as artifactId.

Gradle is able to select the correct multi-platform dependency, Maven isn't.

Credit where it's due: InsertKoinIO/koin#1450

I am using

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.willowtreeapps.assertk</groupId>
    <artifactId>assertk-jvm</artifactId>
    <version>0.26.1</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

and the problem still persists.

That saved my day. Should be placed somewhere in the readme. Or simply provide that pom snippet.
