IHMC CI

Gradle plugin for running groups of tests with varied runtime requirements.

Features

• Easily define and run categories of tests
• Uses the standard gradle test task
• IDE support for running tests in parallel
• Built-in allocation testing support for realtime safety
• Built on JUnit 5, Gradle, and JVM
• Load resources using file APIs with the resource.dir JVM property
• runningOnCIServer boolean JVM property to improve running tests locally
• Support for projects using ihmc-build plugin
• Generate empty test results when no tests are present to avoid false negative builds

User Guide

This plugin defines a concept of categories. Categories are communicated via the category Gradle property (i.e. gradle test -Pcategory=fast)and are used to set up a test process to run tests based on tags, parallel execution settings, and JVM arguments.

Built in categories

The default settings can be scaled via the cpuThreads property (i.e. -PcpuThreads=8). The default value is 8.

Custom categories

In your project's build.gradle.kts (Kotlin): kotlin categories.create("slow-scs") { classesPerJVM = 1 // default: 1 maxJVMs = 2 // default: 2 maxParallelTests = 1 // default: 4 excludeTags += "none" // default: all includeTags += ["slow", "scs"] // default: empty jvmProperties += "some.arg" to "value" // default: empty List jvmArguments += "-Dsome.arg=value" // default: empty List minHeapSizeGB = 1 // default: 1 maxHeapSizeGB = 8 // default: 4 }

In your project's build.gradle (Groovy): groovy def fast = categories.create("fast") fast.jvmProperties.putAll(fast.getScsDefaultJVMProps()) fast.minHeapSizeGB = 6 fast.maxHeapSizeGB = 8

Special JVM argument accessors:

• getAllocationAgentJVMArg() - Find location of -javaagent:[..]java-allocation-instrumenter[..].jar
• getSCSDefaultJVMArgs() - Default settings for SCS

The plugin will do a few other things too:

• If -PrunningOnCIServer=true, set -DrunningOnCIServer=true.
• Pass -Dresources.dir that points to your resources folder on disk.
• Pass -ea JVM argument to enable JVM assertions

Examples

$ gradle test -Pcategory=fast   // run fast tests

import org.junit.jupiter.api.Tag;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;

@Test
public void fastTest() { ... }   // runs in fast category

@Tag("allocation")
@Test
public void allocationTest() { ... }   // runs in allocation category

Running tests locally in your IDE

It is possible to run tests in parallel in your IDE, just pass these VM arguments:

-Djunit.jupiter.execution.parallel.enabled=true
-Djunit.jupiter.execution.parallel.config.strategy=dynamic
