Chapter 6. Working with Gradle

This chapter covers some more plugins such as War and Scala, which will be helpful in building web applications and Scala applications. Additionally, we will discuss diverse topics such as Property Management, Multi-Project build, and logging aspects. In the Multi-project build section, we will discuss how Gradle supports multi-project build through the root project's build file. It also provides the flexibility of treating each module as a separate project, plus all the modules together like a single project. In the final section of this chapter, we will learn the automated testing aspects with Gradle. You will learn to execute unit tests with different configurations. In this section, we will learn about testing concepts with the examples of two commonly used testing frameworks, JUnit and TestNG.
