Additional info

This error occurs with and without the test_dir = digihead_tests property. And it doesn't seem to matter where I put it. I've tried under a top-level [platformio] stanza, and under the [env:teensy31] one.

Thanks a lot for the report and that help us to test PIO3.

Cheers.

I pulled the update from develop, and platformio test compiles cleanly with

[platformio]
test_dir = digihead_tests

I don't have a teensy with me to verify running the tests yet.

I pulled the update from develop

Next time please try pio upgrade command, it should upgrade current develop to the "latest" develop automatically.
