Incorrect description of project-wide testCoroutineDispatcher settings

See original GitHub issue

The following document contains info about testCoroutineDispatcher for project config.

https://kotest.io/docs/framework/coroutines/test-coroutine-dispatcher.html

class ProjectConfig : AbstractProjectConfig() {
  override val testCoroutineDispatcher = true
}

But when I try to use the following code then there is no available override for testCoroutineDispatcher. Not sure if this is a bug (missing property) or incorrect documentation.

I’m using 5.0.0 version of the library.

Actually sorry you’re right, I was looking at other config objects. This will be fixed for 5.0.4 and 5.1.0.

This appears to still be an issue in 5.5.4 (or a regression?), as attempting to use override var testCoroutineDispatcher = true in ProjectConfig as suggested by the documentation gives a lint error 'testCoroutineDispatcher' in 'AbstractProjectConfig' is final and cannot be overridden?
