Integration tests with Gradle Kotlin DSL

Question

I'm using this blog post to configure integration tests for a Spring Boot project, but I'm pretty stuck on declaring the source sets. I also found this post on StackOverflow, but I think I'm a bit further already.

My project structure is

project
|_ src
  |_ main
  | |_ kotlin
  | |_ resources
  |_ testIntegration
  | |_ kotlin
  | |_ resources
  |_ test
  | |_ kotlin
  | |_ resources
  |_ build.gradle.kts
  |_ ... other files

And build.gradle.kts

import org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile

plugins {
    idea
    kotlin("jvm")
    id("org.springframework.boot") version "2.0.5.RELEASE"
    id("org.jetbrains.kotlin.plugin.spring") version "1.2.71"
}

fun DependencyHandlerScope.springBoot(module: String) = this.compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-$module:2.0.5.RELEASE")
fun DependencyHandlerScope.springBootStarter(module: String) = this.springBoot("starter-$module")

dependencies {
    springBoot("devtools")

    springBootStarter("batch")
    springBootStarter("... spring boot dependencies")


    compile("... more dependencies")

    testCompile("... more test dependencies")
}

val test by tasks.getting(Test::class) {
    useJUnitPlatform { }
}

kotlin {
    sourceSets {
        val integrationTest by creating {
            kotlin.srcDir("src/testIntegration/kotlin")
            resources.srcDir("src/testIntegration/resources")
        }
    }
}

val integrationTestCompile by configurations.creating {
    extendsFrom(configurations["testCompile"])
}
val integrationTestRuntime by configurations.creating {
    extendsFrom(configurations["testRuntime"])
}

val testIntegration by tasks.creating(Test::class) {
    group = "verification"
    testClassesDirs = kotlin.sourceSets["integrationTest"].kotlin
}

idea {
    module {
        testSourceDirs.addAll(kotlin.sourceSets["integrationTest"].kotlin.srcDirs)
        testSourceDirs.addAll(kotlin.sourceSets["integrationTest"].resources.srcDirs)
    }
}

I think I'm pretty much in the right direction. At least it doesn't throw an exception any more :)

When I run the testIntegration task, I get the following output:

Testing started at 12:08 ...
12:08:49: Executing task 'testIntegration'...

> Task :project:compileKotlin UP-TO-DATE
> Task :project:compileJava NO-SOURCE

> Task :project:classes UP-TO-DATE
> Task :project:compileTestKotlin UP-TO-DATE
> Task :project:compileTestJava NO-SOURCE
> Task :project:processTestResources UP-TO-DATE
> Task :project:testClasses UP-TO-DATE
> Task :project:testIntegration
BUILD SUCCESSFUL in 2s
5 actionable tasks: 1 executed, 4 up-to-date
12:08:51: Task execution finished 'testIntegration'.

Also, IntelliJ doesn't recognise the testIntegration directories as Kotlin packages.

Answer 1

I was finally able to figure it out thanks to some help on the Kotlin Slack channel. First of all I had to upgrade to Gradle version 4.10.2.

For more info have a look at these two pages from Gradle:

• https://docs.gradle.org/release-nightly/userguide/organizing_gradle_projects.html#sec:separate_test_type_source_files
• https://docs.gradle.org/release-nightly/userguide/organizing_gradle_projects.html#sec:separate_test_type_source_files

Then I just had to create the sourceSets for the integrationTests

sourceSets {
    create("integrationTest") {
            kotlin.srcDir("src/integrationTest/kotlin")
            resources.srcDir("src/integrationTest/resources")
            compileClasspath += sourceSets["main"].output + configurations["testRuntimeClasspath"]
            runtimeClasspath += output + compileClasspath + sourceSets["test"].runtimeClasspath
    }
}

This would work just fine for Java, but since I'm working with Kotlin I had to add an extra withConvention wrapper

sourceSets {
    create("integrationTest") {
        withConvention(KotlinSourceSet::class) {
            kotlin.srcDir("src/integrationTest/kotlin")
            resources.srcDir("src/integrationTest/resources")
            compileClasspath += sourceSets["main"].output + configurations["testRuntimeClasspath"]
            runtimeClasspath += output + compileClasspath + sourceSets["test"].runtimeClasspath
        }
    }
}

In the docs they only put runtimeClasspath += output + compileClasspath, but I added sourceSets["test"].runtimeClasspath so I can directly use the test dependencies instead of declaring new dependencies for the integrationTest task.

Once the sourceSets were created it was a matter of declaring a new task

task<Test>("integrationTest") {
    description = "Runs the integration tests"
    group = "verification"
    testClassesDirs = sourceSets["integrationTest"].output.classesDirs
    classpath = sourceSets["integrationTest"].runtimeClasspath
    mustRunAfter(tasks["test"])
}

After this the tests still didn't run, but that was because I'm using JUnit4. So I just had to add useJUnitPlatform() which makes this the final code

task<Test>("integrationTest") {
    description = "Runs the integration tests"
    group = "verification"
    testClassesDirs = sourceSets["integrationTest"].output.classesDirs
    classpath = sourceSets["integrationTest"].runtimeClasspath
    mustRunAfter(tasks["test"])
    useJUnitPlatform()
}

Answer 2

I didnt like the use of withConvention and how the kotlin src dir was set. So after check out both gradle docs here and here, I came up with this:

sourceSets {
    create("integrationTest") {
        kotlin {
            compileClasspath += main.get().output + configurations.testRuntimeClasspath
            runtimeClasspath += output + compileClasspath
        }
    }
}

val integrationTest = task<Test>("integrationTest") {
    description = "Runs the integration tests"
    group = "verification"
    testClassesDirs = sourceSets["integrationTest"].output.classesDirs
    classpath = sourceSets["integrationTest"].runtimeClasspath
    mustRunAfter(tasks["test"])
}

tasks.check {
    dependsOn(integrationTest)
}

I preferr the less verbose style when using kotlin { and the use of variable for the new integrationTestTask.
