Body

I am experiencing an issue with the Test Explorer not showing up in the sidebar of GitHub Codespaces' VS Code editor due to which I am not able to run/debug tests for Simple Java code.

The repository that I am in is : https://github.com/rahulbagai/aws-playground and I tried by creating a new Java maven archetype project under this repository. The test project is not checked in, but it can be created by using VS code commands.

Here are the things that I have tried / verified:-

1. Test Runner for Java is installed and enabled.
2. Extension pack for Java is installed and enabled.
3. settings.json has the following contents

{
    "java.test.config": {
      "runner": "junit",
      "workingDirectory": "/workspaces/aws-playground/",
      "testClassPattern": "**/*Test.java",
      "testMethodPattern": ".*Test.*",
      "env": {
        "JAVA_HOME": "/usr/local/sdkman/candidates/java/current"
      }
    },
    "git.openRepositoryInParentFolders": "never"
  }

4. pom.xml has following settings

<plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>2.22.2</version>
                <configuration>
                    <!-- Configure the test source directory -->
                    <testSourceDirectory>src/test/java</testSourceDirectory>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>

5. .devcontainer has java, maven, jest features enabled - https://github.com/rahulbagai/aws-playground
