.env not used when running test

[max13h]

Hey ! I'm new to vitest and when I run a basic test I have those messages

Missing supabase url, set it either in `nuxt.config.js` or via env variable
Missing supabase anon key, set it either in `nuxt.config.js` or via env variable

Running test with nuxt context throw me errors due to .env not setup

When i pnpm dev, everything is setup correctly (.env is setup & nuxt.config)

I tried

• to search on this PR, so I found there was a dotenv option on vitest.config like here - (DotenvOptions)
• use .env.test

Please if you have an idea of where to dig it will really help me 🙏

Can you provide a reproduction? .env.test works fine in my projects ☺️

Thank you for you answer !
Reproduction: https://stackblitz.com/edit/nuxt-starter-1dqe4k?file=package.json
(first time i use stackblitz maybe i made mistake)

I figure out it was the empty vitest.config.ts that was messing with the .env
If i remove the empty config file, it works 👍

Do you have an idea of how i can fix that ? Maybe use vitest config directly inside nuxt.config ? But never saw anything like this before...

I found a temporary solution by adding dotenv.config() to vitest.config.ts

@max13h Use a file called .env.test and put your env vars in there :) Make sure they are used in your "actual application" in the same way.

Omg, I thought you wanted me to write my test file as my-test.nuxt.env.test.ts 😭
I've never seen .env.test before

Thank you for your help !
