NullPointerException: null

[rafi]

Really excited to find this plugin! I've installed through PhpStorm v7 settings plugin, restarted PhpStorm and loaded a Spec file. I'm receiving a NullPointerException: null every 10 seconds or so.

[mprzytulski]

please try with current version of phpspec plugin

I'm still getting an exception as soon as I open a spec file:

I also have this, every time i change cursor position (with mouse or with arrows) on spec file.
Can I take any action to help you solve this issue? Do some test or other thing?

Also getting this constantly in PS 8.0.3 which makes it near impossible to use. I usually just turn off the plagin and stop even trying to use specs because of it though I think they might be useful. Just looking at this bug report seems which is now more than a year old apparently the author does not have the time to maintain the project or doesn't care if it is useful anymore it would seem which is sad.

Getting the exact same issue here. I was excited to use this plugin but it's completely unusable.
1.5 years later and no fix?
As Dragonrun1 noted, unfortunately this does not appear to be maintained so I'll be disabling this plugin.
