Warning building plugin for IJ 2026.2 (I saw both in 2026.2.0 and 2026.2.2):

```auto
w: ⚠️ Specified Dependency Does Not Exist
Unable to find the dependency at the location '/home/mirko/.gradle/caches/9.7.1/transforms/ec3afef6d0363f8fbf15a6ebda452139/transformed/idea-2026.2/lib/testFramework.jar'.

```

| Tool | Version |
| --- | --- |
| Gradle | 9.7.2 |
| IntelliJ Platform Gradle Plugin | 2.18.1 |

Project source [Mirko Sciachero / Sciak Flow for Gitlab · GitLab](https://gitlab.com/m.sciachero/sciak-flow-for-gitlab)

These are the import for testFramework:

```auto
        testFramework(TestFrameworkType.JUnit5)
        testFramework(TestFrameworkType.Platform)
        testFramework(TestFrameworkType.Plugin.Java)
        testFramework(TestFrameworkType.Starter)
        testFramework(TestFrameworkType.Bundled)
        testFramework(TestFrameworkType.Metrics)

```

Best regards,

Drop the `testFramework(TestFrameworkType.Bundled)` entry — it refers to a local file that apparently is no longer available in 2026.2. A local library is an obsolete solution, replaced with artifacts hosted in Maven repository.
