Reproduction

https://stackblitz.com/edit/github-v73onkdp-5xtwbedy?file=vitest.config.ts,globalSetup.ts,test.vitest.e2e.spec.ts

Describe the bug

Whenever I try to use vitest for e2e testing, the setup function always errors out with a "The URL must be of scheme file" error.
The error doesn't tell me anything about what might be wrong, but the runner simply never starts and it has something to do with it expecting a build (even though it's configured to run against localhost instead).

Additional context

Even when I empty out the vitest config file it doesn't work. I wonder if there's an issue resolving some path internally?

[TheDutchCoder]

Turns out the problem is setting environment: 'nuxt', in the vitest config.
When I remove that, it works fine.

I'm not sure why,.

I'm also running into this, downgrading to ^3.14.4 works

[paambaati]

Same, staying on 3.14.x until this is resolved.

Same here, downgrading to "@nuxt/test-utils": "3.14.4", fixed it for me too, thanks @scottbedard. Mac here.

Didn't work for me unfortunately 😢

I am also facing the same issue rn, nuxt 3.14 is fraught with bugs and errors, wearing us down

[cybercoder-naj]

I downgraded from @nuxt/test-utils from 3.15 to 3.14.4 and I am still facing this issue. :(

downgraded to @nuxt/test-utils from 3.15 to 3.14.4 and that seems to work for us, but we are not using SSR with [email protected].

Downgrading to 3.14.4 is working, everyone having problems with it make sure to not include the ^ in your package.json, also deleting .nuxt and node_modules can help.

even downgrading to 3.14 doesn't work
