API Documentation:	`AbstractTestTask`

Known Subtypes:

Test

Abstract class for all test task.

Support for test listeners
Support for reporting
Support for report linking in the console output

Note: This abstract class is not intended for implementation by build script or plugin authors.

Properties

Property	Description
`binResultsDir`	Incubating The root folder for the test results in internal binary format.
`ignoreFailures`	Specifies whether the build should break when the verifications performed by this task fail.
`reports`	The reports that this task potentially produces.

Methods

Method	Description
`addTestListener(listener)`	Registers a test listener with this task. Consider also the following handy methods for quicker hooking into test execution: `AbstractTestTask.beforeTest(groovy.lang.Closure)`, `AbstractTestTask.afterTest(groovy.lang.Closure)`, `AbstractTestTask.beforeSuite(groovy.lang.Closure)`, `AbstractTestTask.afterSuite(groovy.lang.Closure)`
`addTestOutputListener(listener)`	Registers a output listener with this task. Quicker way of hooking into output events is using the `AbstractTestTask.onOutput(groovy.lang.Closure)` method.
`afterSuite(closure)`	Adds a closure to be notified after a test suite has executed. A `TestDescriptor` and `TestResult` instance are passed to the closure as a parameter.
`afterTest(closure)`	Adds a closure to be notified after a test has executed. A `TestDescriptor` and `TestResult` instance are passed to the closure as a parameter.
`beforeSuite(closure)`	Adds a closure to be notified before a test suite is executed. A `TestDescriptor` instance is passed to the closure as a parameter.
`beforeTest(closure)`	Adds a closure to be notified before a test is executed. A `TestDescriptor` instance is passed to the closure as a parameter.
`onOutput(closure)`	Adds a closure to be notified when output from the test received. A `TestDescriptor` and `TestOutputEvent` instance are passed to the closure as a parameter.
`removeTestListener(listener)`	Unregisters a test listener with this task. This method will only remove listeners that were added by calling `AbstractTestTask.addTestListener(org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.TestListener)` on this task. If the listener was registered with Gradle using `Gradle.addListener(java.lang.Object)` this method will not do anything. Instead, use `Gradle.removeListener(java.lang.Object)`.
`removeTestOutputListener(listener)`	Unregisters a test output listener with this task. This method will only remove listeners that were added by calling `AbstractTestTask.addTestOutputListener(org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.TestOutputListener)` on this task. If the listener was registered with Gradle using `Gradle.addListener(java.lang.Object)` this method will not do anything. Instead, use `Gradle.removeListener(java.lang.Object)`.
`reports(configureAction)`	Configures the reports that this task potentially produces.
`setTestNameIncludePatterns(testNamePattern)`	Incubating Sets the test name patterns to be included in execution. Classes or method names are supported, wildcard '*' is supported. For more information see the user guide chapter on testing. For more information on supported patterns see `TestFilter`

Property details

`File` `binResultsDir`

Note: This property is incubating and may change in a future version of Gradle.

The root folder for the test results in internal binary format.

Default:: project.testResultsDir/binary/task.name

`boolean` `ignoreFailures`

Specifies whether the build should break when the verifications performed by this task fail.

`TestTaskReports` `reports` (read-only)

The reports that this task potentially produces.

Method details

`void` `addTestListener`(`TestListener` listener)

Registers a test listener with this task. Consider also the following handy methods for quicker hooking into test execution: AbstractTestTask.beforeTest(groovy.lang.Closure), AbstractTestTask.afterTest(groovy.lang.Closure), AbstractTestTask.beforeSuite(groovy.lang.Closure), AbstractTestTask.afterSuite(groovy.lang.Closure)

This listener will NOT be notified of tests executed by other tasks. To get that behavior, use Gradle.addListener(java.lang.Object).

`void` `addTestOutputListener`(`TestOutputListener` listener)

Registers a output listener with this task. Quicker way of hooking into output events is using the AbstractTestTask.onOutput(groovy.lang.Closure) method.

`void` `afterSuite`(`Closure` closure)

Adds a closure to be notified after a test suite has executed. A TestDescriptor and TestResult instance are passed to the closure as a parameter.

This method is also called after all test suites are executed. The provided descriptor will have a null parent suite.

`void` `afterTest`(`Closure` closure)

Adds a closure to be notified after a test has executed. A TestDescriptor and TestResult instance are passed to the closure as a parameter.

`void` `beforeSuite`(`Closure` closure)

Adds a closure to be notified before a test suite is executed. A TestDescriptor instance is passed to the closure as a parameter.

This method is also called before any test suites are executed. The provided descriptor will have a null parent suite.

`void` `beforeTest`(`Closure` closure)

Adds a closure to be notified before a test is executed. A TestDescriptor instance is passed to the closure as a parameter.

`void` `onOutput`(`Closure` closure)

Adds a closure to be notified when output from the test received. A TestDescriptor and TestOutputEvent instance are passed to the closure as a parameter.

apply plugin: 'java'

test {
   onOutput { descriptor, event ->
       if (event.destination == TestOutputEvent.Destination.StdErr) {
           logger.error("Test: " + descriptor + ", error: " + event.message)
       }
   }
}

`void` `removeTestListener`(`TestListener` listener)

Unregisters a test listener with this task. This method will only remove listeners that were added by calling AbstractTestTask.addTestListener(org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.TestListener) on this task. If the listener was registered with Gradle using Gradle.addListener(java.lang.Object) this method will not do anything. Instead, use Gradle.removeListener(java.lang.Object).

`void` `removeTestOutputListener`(`TestOutputListener` listener)

Unregisters a test output listener with this task. This method will only remove listeners that were added by calling AbstractTestTask.addTestOutputListener(org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.TestOutputListener) on this task. If the listener was registered with Gradle using Gradle.addListener(java.lang.Object) this method will not do anything. Instead, use Gradle.removeListener(java.lang.Object).

`TestTaskReports` `reports`(`Action<? super TestTaskReports>` configureAction)

Configures the reports that this task potentially produces.

`AbstractTestTask` `setTestNameIncludePatterns`(`List<String>` testNamePattern)

Note: This method is incubating and may change in a future version of Gradle.

Sets the test name patterns to be included in execution. Classes or method names are supported, wildcard '*' is supported. For more information see the user guide chapter on testing. For more information on supported patterns see TestFilter
