Do you need custom functionality available across your projects that's more complex than what standalone custom tasks can provide? Then this training is for you! You'll learn how to develop a Gradle project plugin that can be published and applied to your projects.

What You'll Learn:

The three main components to authoring a Gradle plugin:

• Extensions: Allowing users to configure the plugin behavior

• Tasks: Providing custom functionality

• Plugin class: Configuring prerequisite tasks and tying everything together

Testing your plugin:

• Unit tests: For basic configuration of the plugin components

• Functional tests: A powerful tool that enables testing with real-world scenarios

• Consumer project: How to manually test the behavior as an end-user would as you develop

Prerequisites:

• Experience with software development

• Gradle Build Tool experience, including knowledge of core concepts and authoring build files (Kotlin DSL experience a plus)

By the end of this course, you'll be able to:

• Create a Gradle plugin that can be applied by projects
