Kotest - Not able to resolve kotest import statements - Unresolved reference: shouldBe

Question

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test
import io.kotest.matchers.shouldBe

class Test {

    @Test
    fun test() {
        val str = "abc"
        str shouldBe "abc"
    }
}

I am able to run the test from Intellj, However, IDE is not resolving shouldBe import. Seeing Unresolved reference: shouldBe message. IDE is not resolving any matchers from kotest.

I have invalid Any pointers?
