I am a Gradle rookie and I am not sure whether Gradle will start the new JVM when it runs the test set.
Like Passing JVM arguments to Gradle test task I want to pass some parameters to the JVM running the test set.
I added the following lines to build.gradle:
...
test {
groovy {
jvmArgs '-agentpath:/usr/lib/code_dependency_capturer.so' // add line
srcDirs = ['src/test']
if (!JavaVersion.current().isJava8Compatible()) {
exclude '**/v8/*'
exclude '**/vm8/*'
}
}
resources {
srcDirs = ['src/test-resources']
}
}
...
But it tells me:
A problem occurred evaluating root project 'groovy'.
Could not find method jvmArgs() for arguments[-agentpath:/usr/lib/code_dependency_capturer.so] on source set 'test' of type org.gradle.api.internal.tasks.DefaultSourceSet.
I googled this error but failed to solve it.
Try setting the jvmArgs
of the enclosing test
task rather than trying to set them on groovy
.
The error you are getting suggests that jvmArgs
isn’t present on groovy
.
Example:
...
test {
jvmArgs '-agentpath:/usr/lib/code_dependency_capturer.so' // add line
groovy {
srcDirs = ['src/test']
...
}
...
}
This is just a guess as I don’t have a gradle setup handy on which to confirm but worth a try as jvmArgs
is documented as a property for test
:
https://docs.gradle.org/current/dsl/org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.Test.html#org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.Test:jvmArgs
List<String> jvmArgs
The extra arguments to use to launch the JVM for the process. Does not include system properties and the minimum/maximum heap size.
Since jvmArgs
is a list of String you can pass it multiple arguments, refer to:
http://docs.groovy-lang.org/next/html/documentation/working-with-collections.html#_list_literals
Example:
jvmArgs ["-Xarg1", "-Xarg2"]
For "-Dprop=value" system properties use the systemProperties
of the test
task instead:
https://docs.gradle.org/current/dsl/org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.Test.html#org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.Test:systemProperties
