As it's showed in the error msg, I guess the reason is that the ES test files `rest-api-spec` was not including in the jar package. Is there any good ideas for running YamlTestSuiteIT out side the ES project? ---

can you share the directory structure of your project, especially the `test` directory? ---

please use something on the command line like `tree` to show this, as I now still don't know how the directory structure looks like, just like intellij is showing it 🙂 I'm especially interested where your `.yml` files are placed exactly. ---

the rest-api-spec directory should not contain dots, but have subdirectories like `test/resources/rest-api-spec/test/repository_cos/10_basic.yml` ---

Alex, another question 😂 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/6/e/6e990812246fdf95c59729ba5f45a9c724182f93.png) I wrote my own rest-api-spec above, and I want to replace the ${} from in gradle build ``` processTestResources { Map expansions = [ 'bucket': cosBucket, 'base_path': cosBasePath, ] inputs.properties(expansions) MavenFilteringHack.filter(it, expansions) ``` } And How can I use MavenFilteringHack with my own rest-api-spec yaml file？ ---

this is what is done in the s3 repository plugin tests as well. Can you also share the error, maybe someone with more plugin expertise than me will take a look. ---
