Junit 5 gradle plugin not found

Question

Try to use junit 5 with gradle:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'org.junit.platform:junit-platform-gradle-plugin:1.0.0'
    }
}

apply plugin: 'java-library'
apply plugin: 'org.junit.platform.gradle.plugin'
...

Error:

Plugin with id 'org.junit.platform.gradle.plugin' not found.

Gradle version 4.0. What is wrong?

Answer 1

You have to include a repositories section outside the buildscript block as well:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'org.junit.platform:junit-platform-gradle-plugin:1.0.0'
    }
}

apply plugin: 'java-library'
apply plugin: 'org.junit.platform.gradle.plugin'

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}
