How to write a Java integration test task in Gradle with JUnit5?

Question

With Junit4, I had the following definition of integration test:

task testIntegration(type: Test, dependsOn: jar) {
    group 'Verification'
    description 'Runs the integration tests.'
    testLogging {
        showStandardStreams = true
    }

    testClassesDirs = sourceSets.testInt.output.classesDirs
    classpath = sourceSets.testInt.runtimeClasspath
    systemProperties['jar.path'] = jar.archivePath
}

However, with JUnit5, this does not work anymore. I am not being able to figure what to change (it's too late). Any hints?

I am using the junit-platform-gradle-plugin .

Answer 1

I ended up removing the plugin and calling ConsoleRunner directly:

task testIntegration(type: JavaExec, dependsOn: jar) {
    group 'Verification'
    description 'Runs the integration tests.'

    dependencies {
        testRuntime lib.junit5_console
    }

    classpath = sourceSets.testInt.runtimeClasspath
    systemProperties['jar.path'] = jar.archivePath

    main 'org.junit.platform.console.ConsoleLauncher'
    args = ['--scan-classpath', sourceSets.testInt.output.classesDirs.asPath,
            '--reports-dir', "${buildDir}/test-results/testInt"
    ]
}

Also, here is how to apply JaCoCo with the settings:

afterEvaluate {
    jacoco {
        applyTo testUnit
        applyTo testIntegration
    }
    testIntegration.extensions.getByName("jacoco").excludes = ['*Test*', '*.?', '*Foo*', 'jodd.asm5.*', '*.fixtures.*']
}
