Yea i’ve seen those as well now, but these aren’t really eye-opening results tbh.

But gotta dig deeper and lookup why these errors are shown.

Thanks for the help guys.  
For example the second test case.. if i am testing it myself by hand.. it works, but running it on qunit it fails ☹

Ok, got a brief idea whats bringing me the errors and it confuses me:  
`http://localhost:9292/` in my browser has the plugin installed and working  
`http://localhost:9292/qunit` the test shows, that the plugin is not even installed

I thought these two are using the same enviroment ?  
Could this be caused by my local dev-enviroment since it’s not using docker and I’m not able to install the plugin like [Install plugins on a self-hosted site](https://meta.discourse.org/t/install-plugins-in-discourse/19157) ? It’s just sitting in the `plugins` folder like the others.
