Adding Libraries Manually

Adding JUnit 5 for Testing

In the root build.gradle, add the following lines:

Note

allprojects {
    ...

    ext {
        ...

        junitJupiterVersion = '5.7.0'

        ...
    }


project(":core") {
    ...

    dependencies {
        ...

        testImplementation "org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-api:$junitJupiterVersion"
        testRuntimeOnly "org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-engine:$junitJupiterVersion"

        ...
    }

    test {
        useJUnitPlatform()
        testLogging {
            showStandardStreams = true
            events "passed", "skipped", "failed"
        }

        // Optional
        testLogging {
            showStandardStreams = true
            events "standardOut", "passed", "skipped", "failed"
            exceptionFormat = 'full'
        }
    }
}

Update your core module source directory and create test folder

mkdir core/src/main/java core/src/test/java core/src/test/res

Then, edit your core build.gradle source and test path

// From 
sourceSets.main.java.srcDirs = [ "src/" ]

// To
sourceSets.main.java.srcDirs = [ "src/main/java/" ]
sourceSets.test.java.srcDirs = [ "src/test/java/" ]
sourceSets.test.resources.srcDirs = [ "src/test/res/" ]

Running unit tests from root directory with

gradlew test
