forward
Configures the runner to forward standard output from builds to the given writer.
The output of the build is always available via getOutput. This method can be used to additionally capture the output.
Calling this method will negate the effect of previously calling forwardOutput.
The given writer will not be closed by the runner.
When executing builds with Gradle versions earlier than 2.9 in debug mode, any output produced by the build that was written directly to System.out or System.err will not be represented in getOutput. This is due to a defect that was fixed in Gradle 2.9.
