After update adonis to new alpha release the testing with japa doesn't working.

The setup suggested by the article: Setting up tests runner for AdonisJS v5, no longer works after update to latest alpha version.

I'm getting this error:

You can simulate the bug using this code:

https://github.com/RodolfoSilva/demo-adonisjs

git clone [email protected]:RodolfoSilva/demo-adonisjs.git
yarn install
node japaFile.js

I have tried to update the japaFile to use the require-ts, but this doesn't work.

Thanks @thetutlage,
Now is working like a rocket 🚀 💯

For the ADONIS_ACE_CWD env variable I think we don't need to use join, only __dirname.

- process.env.ADONIS_ACE_CWD = join(__dirname)
+ process.env.ADONIS_ACE_CWD = __dirname
