Basic Gradle Example

Below is a simple workflow for executing tests in a Gradle project stored on GitHub. You can paste this directly into the YAML of an existing or new test, just make sure to update the name and namespace for your environment as needed.

  • The spec.content property defines the path to the Gradle project on GitHub.
  • The spec.container property defines default constraints for any container created in this workflow.
  • The spec.steps property defines a single step that runs the gradle --no-daemon test command.
Basic Gradle Workflow
kind: TestWorkflow
apiVersion: testworkflows.testkube.io/v1
metadata:
name: gradle-sample
namespace: testkube
labels:
docs: example
spec:
content:
git:
uri: https://github.com/kubeshop/testkube
revision: main
paths:
- contrib/executor/gradle/examples/hello-gradle
container:
workingDir: /data/repo/contrib/executor/gradle/examples/hello-gradle
resources:
requests:
cpu: 512m
memory: 512Mi
steps:
- name: Run tests
run:
image: gradle:8.5.0-jdk11
env:
- name: TESTKUBE_GRADLE
value: "true"
command:
- gradle
- --no-daemon
- test

After execution, you can see the log output from the test executions under the executions panel tabs:

Basic Gradle from Template

Below is an example workflow for executing the Gradle project using an official Testkube Template.
