PluginApplicationException: Failed to apply plugin [id 'com.android.application']

Help/Discuss

I want to test my Plugin hence I wrote that test class:

class MyPluginTest {
    private def rootProject;
    private def javaProject;
    private def androidApp;
    private def androidLibrary;

    @Before
    public void setUp() {
        rootProject = ProjectBuilder.builder().withName('root').build();

        javaProject = ProjectBuilder.builder().withName('java').withParent(rootProject).build();
        javaProject.plugins.apply('java')

        androidApp = ProjectBuilder.builder().withName('androidApp').withParent(rootProject).build();
        androidApp.plugins.apply('com.android.application')
    }

    @Test
    public void testShouldApplyPMDToJava() {
        rootProject.plugins.apply(MyPlugin)

        assertTrue(javaProject.plugins.hasPlugin(PmdPlugin))
        assertTrue(androidApp.plugins.hasPlugin(PmdPlugin))
    }
}

MyPlugin class looks like this:

class MyPlugin implements Plugin<Project> {
    @Override
    void apply(final Project project) {
        project.subprojects { subProject ->
            subProject.plugins.apply('pmd')

            subProject.pmd {
                toolVersion = '5.4.1'
            }
        }
    }
}

When I execute my test class I get this stacktrace:

Process finished with exit code 255

How can I work around this and actually test that my Plugin also does work with Android Gradle projects?

Those are my project dependencies:

dependencies {
    compile gradleApi()
    compile localGroovy()
    compile 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:1.5.0'
}
