Hey @aevanszen, thanks for the PR.
I gave it some long thought, and the problem with doing it this way is type-erasure. Even if it's unlikely that people would use different effect types in a single codebase, I'd be keen to protect against it. Because
GlobalResourceF
is parameterised, theload
call would return everything, whether it's using cats-effect, monix or zio, and obviously loading monix globals in a CE context wouldn't be great.So what I think we should do instead, would be for the
ServiceLoader
call to be abstract away. We have a SuiteLoader abstraction, and we could add adef loadGlobalResources
to it.The implementation of
SuiteLoader
lives there, at a place that is aware of the classes that the test-framework is supposed to understand. Those are effect-type specific (there is one set defined for CE, one for monix, one for zio etc).Now the thing is that you'll need one other layer of indirection to support cross-compilation. IE you could have a
PlatformServiceLoader
object defined in asrc-jvm
, containing aspiGlobalResources[T](cl : ClassLoader, cls: Class[T]) : List[T]
method (similar to what you've implemented here), and a similar object defined insrc-js
, that'd have a method with the same signature but would return an empty list.This way, type-erasure would be accounted for.

Thank you for the detailed reply @Baccata, the suggestions are very helpful.
I had the same reservations around type-erasure but wasn't sure the best way to work around it in the framework just yet. Your suggestion is a good starting point, and I'll look into it.
I'll add the tests and documentation when the implementation is ok and update the PR with the changes.
The GlobalResoure classpath isn't an urgent blocker for me, so updating this PR may be slow as I work on it when I get the spare time. I will try to work on it, though, as it'll be useful to have.

No problem whatsoever, I certainly appreciate the contribution, even if it takes time. There is no rush :) let us know if you get stuck or if you want us to have a look at some commits
