Running ./gradlew clean test fails with Gradle 8.12

[ShindongLee]

Describe the bug
With Gradle 8.12, running

./gradlew clean test

fails with the following error:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: /path/to/module/build/tmp/test/kover-agent.args (No such file or directory)

It works with Gradle 8.11 or by running ./gradlew clean or ./gradlew test separately in Gradle 8.12.

Errors

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ‘:utils:test’.
> java.io.FileNotFoundException: /path/to/module/build/tmp/test/kover-agent.args (No such file or directory)

Expected behavior
./gradlew clean test should work successfully in Gradle 8.12.

Reproducer
run ./gradlew clean test with Gradle 8.12 in Kotlin/JVM multi-module projects.

Reports
If applicable, report files or screenshots.

Is this issue been resolved? I get the same issue when running ./gradlew clean build shadowJar. But if i run ./gradlew clean and then ./gradlew build shadowJar it works.

I also get following problem report

    - [warn]  Calling configuration method 'attributes(Action)' is deprecated for configuration 'kover', which has permitted usage(s): Declarable - this configuration can have dependencies added to it This method is only meant to be called on configurations which allow the (non-deprecated) usage(s): 'Consumable, Resolvable'. This behavior has been deprecated.`org.jetbrains.kotlinx.kover`
This behavior is scheduled to be removed in Gradle 9.0.
