Two extensions to Gradle Test tasks:
- Unconditionally run all tests (i.e. also cached tests)
- Repeated
Testexecutor invocations (does not work with Gradle Enterprise Distributed Testing)
By default, Gradle only runs tests for sources (test-class inputs), that have changed. Sometimes you want to rerun
some or all tests, e.g. when investigating/fixing flaky tests. Running Gradle with the project property
testRerun (e.g. ./gradlew test -PtestRerun) marks the test as "not up-to-date" and all tests matched tests will
be run.
In addition to the above, specifying -PtestRepetitions=N repeats Test tasks N times, which can also be quite
handy when investigating/fixing flaky tests.
NOTE Repeating tests does not work with Gradle Enterprise Distributed Testing,
as both the distributed-testing plugin and this plugin use the same (undocumented) approach to update the
testExecutor field by making the package-protected method org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.Test.setTestExecuter
accessible. If you're interested in this functionality in GE's dist-testing, please ping Gradle.
Usage:
plugins {
id("org.caffinitas.gradle.testrerun") version "0.1"
}
