Gradle 1.4 release outlook

Thanks for your input. I’m surprised that ScalaTest doesn’t offer JUnit integration. That would instantly make it compatible with all IDEs and build tools, without those tools having to implement and maintain a special ScalaTest integration (which takes a lot of effort).

Actually there is such integration between ScalaTest and JUnit.

You just have to put JUnit in your testCompile classpath and annotate your ScalaTest classes with

@RunWith( classOf[ org.scalatest.junit.JUnitRunner ] ) if you’re coding in scala or @RunWith(org.scalatest.junit.JUnitRunner.class) if you’re coding in java or groovy.

Now you have all desired IDE integration. Gradle threats these ScalaTest tests as normal JUnit tests and you get those sophisticated reports for free.

That’s good to know. I couldn’t find this in the ScalaTest docs. Some other features you’ll get with this is Gradle’s parallel test execution and customizable forking to avoid memory issues.

This will be included in the 1.5 release outlook. Should be official in the next 24 hours.
