Why doesn't clojure.test/run-all-tests find tests when run from a leiningen plugin?

I have a leiningen plugin consisting of the following function:

(defn vscode-test
  "Simple test run"
  [project & args]
  (leiningen.core.eval/eval-in-project project `(clojure.test/run-all-tests)))

When I run this with lein vscode-test inside a Clojure project with a project.clj file clojure.test/run-all-tests runs, but it doesn't find any of the tests in the project. Note that lein test does run all the tests.

My project.clj is

(defproject repl_test "0.1.0-SNAPSHOT"
  :description "FIXME: write description"
  :url "http://example.com/FIXME"
  :license {:name "Eclipse Public License"
            :url "http://www.eclipse.org/legal/epl-v10.html"}
  :source-paths ["src" "test" "dev"]
  :plugins [[vscode-test "0.1.0-SNAPSHOT"]]
  :dependencies [[org.clojure/clojure "1.8.0"]
                 [org.clojure/core.async "0.3.442"]
                 [org.clojure/tools.namespace "0.2.11"]])

Why doesn't the plugin see the tests?

clojure.test/run-all-tests runs all currently defined tests. lein test first loads the test definitions in the test directory and then calls the clojure.test code.

In other words; you're not running any tests because the code you've provided doesn't load / require the namespaces containing your tests.
