Or if you don't like that, `tasks.configureEach { ... }` and in there compare the parent class name with your string

that (`Class.forName`) actually did not work! even though `Class.forName("..")` finds the class

```tasks.withType(
    // kotlinx.kover.gradle.plugin.tasks.KoverVerifyTask is internal
    Class.forName("kotlinx.kover.gradle.plugin.tasks.KoverVerifyTask").javaClass as Class&lt;Task&gt;
)
    .configureEach {
        error("this never gets hit")
    }```


Maybe class loader problem? For example the `Class.forName` one comes from a different class loader than the one the tasks are made of.
