Separate integration and unit tests with Gradle

Question

I'm migrating an existing Maven and JUnit 5 project where the integration and unit tests are separated into different phases:

• the *Test.java unit tests are run on the test phase
• the *IT.java integration tests are run on the verify phase

How do I accomplish the same separation with Gradle? It is my understanding that Gradle's check task is the equivalent to Maven's verify.

Answer 1

I ended up using filters to separate the unit and integration tests and to bind the integration tests to the check task:

tasks.named('test') {
    useJUnitPlatform {
        filter {
            includeTestsMatching "*Test"
            excludeTestsMatching "*IT"
        }
    }
}

def integrationTest = tasks.register("integrationTest", Test) {
    useJUnitPlatform {
        filter {
            includeTestsMatching '*IT'
            includeTestsMatching 'IT*'
            includeTestsMatching '*ITCase'
        }
    }
}

tasks.named('check') {
    dependsOn integrationTest
}
