Common Config (in progress)

apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'application'

// specify Java version
sourceCompatibility = 1.8
targetCompatibility = 1.8

 
// for gradle run
mainClassName = "com.lidenlab.App"
 
repositories {
    //mavenCentral()
    jcenter()
}

dependencies {
    compile "groupId:artifactId:version"
    testCompile group: 'junit', name: 'junit', version: '4.12'
}

apply plugin: 'java'

apply plugin: 'application'

// specify Java version

sourceCompatibility = 1.8

targetCompatibility = 1.8

// for gradle run

mainClassName = "com.lidenlab.App"

repositories {

//mavenCentral()

jcenter()

}

dependencies {

compile "groupId:artifactId:version"

testCompile group: 'junit', name: 'junit', version: '4.12'

}

Create runnable Jar file

Configure the Jar task of the Java plugin:

apply plugin: 'java'
 
jar {
    manifest {
        attributes 'Main-Class': 'com.lidenlab.App'
    }
}

apply plugin: 'java'

jar {

manifest {

attributes 'Main-Class': 'com.lidenlab.App'

}

Force running subsequent tests

# use the rerun flag
gradle test --rerun-tasks

# clean the tests
gradle cleanTest test

# configure test to depend on cleanTest in build.gradle
test {
    dependsOn 'cleanTest'
    //Your previous task details (if any)
}

# use the rerun flag

gradle test --rerun-tasks

# clean the tests

gradle cleanTest test

# configure test to depend on cleanTest in build.gradle

test {

dependsOn 'cleanTest'

//Your previous task details (if any)

}

Show StandardStreams from tests

// show System.out.println and System.err.println

test {
    testLogging {
        showStandardStreams = true
 
        // events method:
        // events 'STANDARD_OUT', 'STANDARD_ERROR'

        // events method with enum values:
        // events org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.logging.TestLogEvent.STANDARD_OUT,
        //        org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.logging.TestLogEvent.STANDARD_ERROR,
 
        // Or set events property:
        // events = ['STANDARD_OUT', 'STANDARD_ERROR']
    }
}

// show System.out.println and System.err.println

test {

testLogging {

showStandardStreams = true

// events method:

// events 'STANDARD_OUT', 'STANDARD_ERROR'

// events method with enum values:

// events org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.logging.TestLogEvent.STANDARD_OUT,

// org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.logging.TestLogEvent.STANDARD_ERROR,

// Or set events property:

// events = ['STANDARD_OUT', 'STANDARD_ERROR']

}

References and Resources

So I was replaying Star Wars: The Force Awakens the other day and in one scene I thought I heard “Galactic Standard Time”. Had to rewind and no kidding, the PA announcer is prompting “All sentry droids, resynchronize to Galactic Standard Time, offset 473.” I’ve been researching issues related to Global Timezones and Daylight Saving Time this past year, so much so I guess that this rang an unconscious bell. Snagged the clip for your viewing pleasure. I’m pretty sure anyone into Software Internationalization (I18) and Star Wars will appreciate this one.

Can’t find much official information about Galactic Standard Time but it’s obviously used by the First Order on Starkiller Base

Wookiepedia has some articles about Time though:

Would be interesting to continue researching dates and times within the Star Wars universe.
