Ember test via docker-compose run builds repeatedly, but never runs tests

See attached image at bottom.

When re-running the build with SSH enabled, doing a docker exec -it app bash into the container and running the exact same command works just fine. Only one “Building” appears in the terminal at all, if any. Tests pass no problem.

Done, sorry about that. It was pretty late my time when I wrote that post last night, ha.

Turns out it was a testem.js issue. Cause and solution listed here.
