I’m the author of the pfsensible.core collection. My ansible unit tests are now failing in github actions with: [gw2] linux -- Python 3.10.16 /opt/hostedtoolcache/Python/3.10.16/x64/bin/python self = <ansible_collections.pfsensible.core.tests.unit.plugins.modules.test_pfsense_vlan.TestPFSenseVlan…

Could this be related to utilizing community.internal_test_tools but not pinning the version to use? I’ve never used that collection, but maybe a change to ModuleTestCase‎ has caused it. And without pinning the version of that collection, if behavior changed, it could cause your tests to break.

(0.16.0 should be out soon with DT support, once I figure out why the codecov uploader is suddenly failing…) (Update: 0.16.0 is out by now.)

Switching to with set_module_args(args): did the trick. Thanks!
