Followed the steps mentioned here

but while running command npm run test

it gives me following error, what does it mean?

Yeah we are working on fixing that issue soon. It is happening because we have a couple algorithms that generate the tests and one got out of sync with the rest of the codebase. That one isn't used by us that much anymore and we forgot to update it and switch the default to the newer one.

To get around this in the mean time just create a config file with these contents:

'use strict';

module.exports = {
  plannerAlgorithm: 'actionTree',
};

And then update the command in package.json to use the config like this:

"generate-tests": "simulato generate -o ./tests -f config.js"
