If you're familiar with Gradle's basics elements - possibly through the author's previous O'Reilly book, Building and Testing with Gradle - this more advanced guide provides the recipes, techniques, and syntax to help you master this build automation tool. With clear, concise explanations and lots of ready-to-use code examples, you'll explore four discrete areas of Gradle functionality: file operations, custom Gradle plugins, build lifecycle hooks, and dependency management. Learn how to use Gradle's rich set of APIs and Groovy-based Domain Specific Language to customize build software that actually conforms to your product. By using the techniques in this book, you'll be able to write domain-specific builds that support every other line of code your team creates.Examine Gradle's file API, including copy tasks, pattern matching, content filtering, and the FileCollection interface Understand the process for building and packaging a custom Gradle plug-in Manage build complexity with hook methods and Gradle's rule feature Learn how Gradle handles dependency management natively and through customization Explore Gradle's core plug-ins as well as key examples from the Gradle community

Build and test software written in Java and many other languages with Gradle, the open source project automation tool that’s getting a lot of attention. This concise introduction provides numerous code examples to help you explore Gradle, both as a build tool and as a complete solution for automating the compilation, test, and release process of simple and enterprise-level applications.

Discover how Gradle improves on the best ideas of Ant, Maven, and other build tools, with standards for developers who want them and lots of flexibility for those who prefer less structure.

Use Gradle with Groovy, Clojure, Scala, and languages beyond the JVM, such as Flex and CGet started building a simple Java program using Gradle''s command line tooling and a small build scriptLearn how to configure and construct tasks, Gradle''s fundamental unit of build activityTake advantage of Gradle''s integration with AntUse Gradle to integrate with or transition from Maven, and to build software more cleanlyPerform application unit and integration tests using JUnit, TestNG, Spock, and Geb
