Seeing a similar issue to the Xerces problems with checkstyle when under test (i.e. using gradleApi()):

When it rains…

Checking that I understand the situation:

  1. Integration test is running a build using TestKit
  2. The build-under-test has the Checkstyle plugin applied
  3. Tests fail when trying to execute checkstyleMain
3

Not in this case Sterling: it’s an older nebula-test IntegrationSpec. Uses the tooling API to run the build.

Didn’t have time to dig any deeper on this one. Let me know if you need more info.

4

Could you please provide a self-contained example or at least some hints how to reproduce this?

5

I’m assuming when @Danny_Thomas1 says that this is an IntegrationSpec in nebula-test he is referring to this repository. https://github.com/nebula-plugins/nebula-test I’ve checked it out and am attempting to reproduce the error. I’m guessing that the IntegrationSpec is run with this invocation:
gradle test

6

Looks like I am wrong about it being that project. Now I’m feeling a bit stuck again. @Danny_Thomas1 any reproduction steps you can provide would be super-helpful.

7

Sure, give me an hour or two - I’ll post a reduced example for you.

8

Try this, the project has a failing test:

Thanks, I’ll take a look right away.

@adammurdoch Fixed this on the 2.14 release branch. It will be in rc-4. You can see your example working after this pull request which uses a release snapshot in the gradle wrapper which contains the fix.

@eljobe unfortunately I’m getting exactly the same problem again starting with Gradle 3.0 - can you please take a look?

Took a look. It passes for me with:
Gradle 3.1 - build scan
Gradle 3.0 - build scan

Be sure to use my fork of @Danny_Thomas1’s repo. I had to correct something in the build, and I don’t think it was merged back into @Danny_Thomas1’s version.
