Running unit tests before each build in Gradle

How can I configure a build.gradle in an Android project to run all my unit tests before each debug or release build? I know that I can set tasks dependencies with dependsOn, but how can I specify it for the unit test task? I'd like to do this for each (Android and plain Java) module of my project, is it possible?

Should I run unit tests before build?

Always build the project(s) before running/debugging unit tests. Positive: always correct results, not confusing for users.

Does Gradle build also run tests?

By default, Gradle will run all tests that it detects, which it does by inspecting the compiled test classes. This detection uses different criteria depending on the test framework used. For JUnit, Gradle scans for both JUnit 3 and 4 test classes.

How do I run all unit tests in Gradle?

Run Gradle testsIn your Gradle project, in the editor, create or select a test to run. From the context menu, select Run <test name>. icon in the left gutter. If you selected the Choose per test option, IntelliJ IDEA displays both Gradle and JUnit test runners for each test in the editor.

Do you need a unit test for every method?

Every behavior should be covered by a unit test, but every method doesn't need its own unit test. Many developers don't test get and set methods, because a method that does nothing but get or set an attribute value is so simple that it is considered immune to failure.

Go to Run/Debug Configurations, and select your application configuration. At the bottom of the right panel, under Before launch:, click the + button, and select Run another configuration. There, choose the configuration for running your tests.

In before launch set your test case command to run them.enter image description here
