Add support for delegating test and run/debug execution

[graemerocher]

The hooks seem to be there but it is currently unimplemented. We need to be able to delegate test and run execution to Gradle.

It seems from the blog is this is planned. Is there an ETA?

Hi @graemerocher,

Yes, it's in our plan. So far there is no concrete ETA yet.

Hi @graemerocher,

I'm working on the test delegation support with @Arthurm1 recently, and the code is closed to be ready.

Is there any sample project in Micronaut using Gradle in which tests are not working in VS Code previously. I can use it to test if that's working now.

[graemerocher]

Great news! Sure you can grab any example from Micronaut Launch hat uses testcontainers/docker to run tests:

curl --location --request GET 'https://launch.micronaut.io/create/default/com.example.demo?lang=JAVA&build=GRADLE_KOTLIN&test=JUNIT&javaVersion=JDK_21&features=mysql&features=data-jdbc' --output demo.zip

running tests that require testcontainres/docker requires delegating to the build tool

Works now, thanks for sharing the sample project. I'll keep you updated.

Update: client side PRs are under review:

microsoft/vscode-java-test#1705
microsoft/vscode-gradle#1510

[graemerocher]

does this also support delegating the static void main method in src/main/java to Gradle's run?

I need to split out and re-submit the original buildTarget/run support. I'll try to sort this week.

I'm not sure what plans there are on the BSP client side @jdneo?

I'll make a pre-release for the test delegation late this week. Next I'll do the test debug support (In this month)

Delegate run will be the next.

Update: PR for debug test support: microsoft/vscode-gradle#1536

[jdneo]

The Gradle Test Delegation (both run and debug) has supported now.

To use this feature, you need to install the latest Test Runner for Java and Gradle for Java extension.

To delegate the tests to Gradle, you can set the default testing profile in Testing explorer:

If you do not want to change the default testing profile, you can trigger an one-time execution via:

nice!

is there a way to default to this setting for all Gradle projects under Gradle settings? Or does it need to be done every time you open a project

[graemerocher]

Seems that output from Gradle is not collected into the Test Results log window, is that a bug?

VS Code will remember the choice for the project.

Yes, it's not implemented yet.

[graemerocher]

is there an issue to track that?

FYI - #147 needs to be merged to send stdout/err back. See spec

@graemerocher we have already published a blog for delegating test to Gradle. If possible, we would greatly appreciate if you could also help us to promote that as well: https://x.com/NickZhu9/status/1818951420454072769 . Thanks!
