Interface TestLauncher

  • All Superinterfaces:
    ConfigurableLauncher<TestLauncher>, LongRunningOperation
    public interface TestLauncher
extends ConfigurableLauncher<TestLauncher>

    A TestLauncher allows you to execute tests in a Gradle build.

    If the target Gradle version is >=6.8 then you can use TestLauncher to execute tests from included builds. Test operation descriptors from included builds work out-of-the-box. You can target tasks from included builds by specifying the task identity path (i.e. ':included-build-name:subproject-name:taskName').

    However, you cannot use the methods with included builds that don't specify the target test tasks (e.g. withJvmTestClasses() and withJvmTestMethods()). Those methods configure all test tasks in the root build only.

    2.6

      • debugTestsOn

        TestLauncher debugTestsOn​(int port)
        Configures test JVM to run in debug mode.

        When called, the forked test JVM is launched with the following argument: 

        -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=n,suspend=n,address=localhost:<port>
        This means the test JVM expects a debugger at the specified port that uses a socket listening connector. If the debugger is not present then the test execution will fail.

        Invoking this method adjusts the test task to launch only one JVM. More specifically, the parallel execution gets disabled and the forkEvery property is set to 0.

        Parameters:
        port - the target port where the test JVM expects the debugger
        Returns:
        this
        Since:
        5.6

      • forTasks

        @Incubating
TestLauncher forTasks​(java.lang.String... tasks)
        Sets the tasks to be executed. If no tasks are specified, the project's default tasks are executed.

        The specified tasks are ignored if the target Gradle versions is <7.6.

        Parameters:
        tasks - The paths of the tasks to be executed. Relative paths are evaluated relative to the project for which this launcher was created.
        Returns:
        this

      • run

        void run​(ResultHandler<? super java.lang.Void> handler)
        Starts executing the tests. This method returns immediately, and the result is later passed to the given handler.

        If the operation fails, the handler's ResultHandler.onFailure(GradleConnectionException) method is called with the appropriate exception. See run() for a description of the various exceptions that the operation may fail with.

        Parameters:
        handler - The handler to supply the result to.
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalStateException - When the connection has been closed or is closing.

      • withTestsFor

        @Incubating
TestLauncher withTestsFor​(Action<TestSpecs> testSpec)
        Adds tests to be executed declared using a fine-grained test selection API.

        Clients can target tests via the TestSpec interface, which can configure the target test tasks as well as what tests should be executed 

             TestLauncher testLauncher = projectConnection.newTestLauncher();
     testLauncher.withTestsFor(spec -> {
         spec.forTaskPath(":test")

             .includePattern("io.*")
     }).run();

        Parameters:
        testSpec - The action selecting the target tests.
        Returns:
        this
