[Bug] CI (macOS) / build (pull_request) fails with "Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'tasks')" #4441
Description
Brief Issue Summary
On multiple unrelated pull requests from different authors, the macOS build CI task is failing in the same location.
This is happening to PRs for which the Windows and Linux CI build tasks are succeeding.
This is a known problem but I don't see an issue ticket for it.
Examples of PRs with all other tests passing, but the macOS CI build task failing in this way:
CMake Tools Diagnostics
[Not applicable]Debug Log
[Not applicable]Additional Information
The error message in the CI log is always:
1) Coverage integration
Good Run test with coverage:
TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'tasks')
at Context.<anonymous> (out/test/end-to-end-tests/single-root-UI/test/coverage.test.js:48:38)
The indicated line in the JavaScript backtrace corresponds to test/end-to-end-tests/single-root-UI/test/coverage.test.ts:70 in the TypeScript source:
test('Good Run test with coverage', async () => {
await vscode.workspace.getConfiguration('cmake', vscode.workspace.workspaceFolders![0].uri).update('preRunCoverageTarget', 'init-coverage');
await vscode.workspace.getConfiguration('cmake', vscode.workspace.workspaceFolders![0].uri).update('postRunCoverageTarget', 'capture-coverage');
const testResult: any = await vscode.commands.executeCommand('testing.coverage.uri', vscode.Uri.file(testEnv.projectFolder.location));
> expect(testResult['tasks'][0].hasCoverage).to.be.eq(true);
expect(testResult['items'][2].computedState).to.be.eq(TestResultState.Passed);
expect(fs.existsSync(path.join(testEnv.projectFolder.location, testEnv.buildLocation, 'lcov.info'))).to.be.true;
}).timeout(60000);
