I have an application which has PropCheck tests. I am now trying to build a command line for this program. However, when I try to run the built escript, I get the following:

16:50:39.136 [info]  Application propcheck exited: exited in: PropCheck.App.start(:normal, [])
    ** (EXIT) an exception was raised:
        ** (UndefinedFunctionError) function Mix.Project.config/0 is undefined (module Mix.Project is not available)

Googling around, I tried adding runtime: false to propcheck’s options in my mix.exs. Now the CLI works fine, but mix test won’t work.

== Compilation error in file test/analytic_tableaux_props_test.exs ==
** (exit) exited in: GenServer.call(PropCheck.CounterStrike, {:counter_example, {AnalyticTableauxPropsTest, :"property_a simple formula proves itself", []}}, 5000)
    ** (EXIT) no process: the process is not alive or there's no process currently associated with the given name, possibly because its application isn't started

Any help very much appreciated.
