Java Tools Developer Productivity By Pavel Fol Gradle is a popular choice for Java developers who want flexibility and performance in a build automation tool. In this blog, we give an overview of Gradle, how it
Gradle is a flexible build automation tool for Java. In this blog, you will learn about its useful commands and features, and why it's better than Maven.
JUnit is a unit testing open-source framework for Java. It helps in test-driven development and writing better codes. Learn JUnit features, working, and more.
Testing async operations is tricky; use Mockito’s when().thenReturn(). Tight coupling in legacy code; refactor with dependency injection. Resource access needs Android context; use AndroidX Test. Large test suites slow execution; optimize with Gradle caching, parallel runs. Frequent code changes ...
can attach the debugger to any GraalVM-based executable or start your application with the debugger attached. The corresponding run configuration will be created automatically for Maven/Gradle projects. This integration is experimental and requires the dev build of GraalVM andthis pluginto be installed...
Gradle can be started as a low-priority process, to ensure that other applications, such as the IDE or browser, stay responsive even when a demanding build is running. The JaCoCo plugin, providing code coverage metrics for Java code integration, works with the build cache. When applying this...
Step 2: Add dependency to the build.gradle file and click “sync now” Step 3: Working with the RegistrationUtil.kt file Construct a new RegistrationUtil file in Kotlin with an object type. Since this is a singleton, there is no need to construct an instance of it in other clas...
