# Gradle

> A guide for generating Trunk-compatible test reports for Gradle

You can automatically [detect and manage flaky tests](../../detection/) in your Gradle projects by integrating with Trunk. This document explains how to configure Gradle to output JUnit XML reports that can be uploaded to Trunk for analysis.

## Setup steps

Work through the steps below in order. Once you've finished the last one, you'll be ready to move on to [configure uploads in CI](../ci-providers/).

<Steps>
  <Step title={<a href="#generating-reports">Generate a compatible test report</a>} />

  <Step title={<a href="#report-file-path">Configure the report file path or glob</a>} />

  <Step title={<a href="#disable-retries">Disable retries for better detection accuracy</a>} />

  <Step title={<a href="#try-it-locally">Test uploads locally</a>} />
</Steps>

## Generating Reports

Tests run with Gradle will generate JUnit XML reports by default and are compatible with Trunk. You can further [configure reporting behavior](https://docs.gradle.org/8.10.2/userguide/java_testing.html#test_reporting) in your `build.gradle.kts` or `build.gradle`.

### Report File Path

By default, Android projects will produce a directory with JUnit XML reports under `./app/build/test-results/test`. You can locate these files with the glob `"./app/build/test-results/test/*.xml"`.

If you wish to override the default test result path, you can do so in the `build.gradle.kts` or `build.gradle` files:

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Groovy">
    ```groovy title="build.gradle" theme={null}
    java.testResultsDir = layout.buildDirectory.dir("junit-reports")
    ```
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Kotlin">
    ```kotlin title="build.gradle.kts" theme={null}
    java.testResultsDir = layout.buildDirectory.dir("junit-reports")
    ```
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

This example will write report files to `"./app/build/junit-reports/test/*.xml"`

<Note>
  The `validate` and `upload` commands below use the default path. If you apply this override, point `--junit-paths` at `./app/build/junit-reports/test/*.xml` instead.
</Note>

### Disable Retries

You need to disable automatic retries if you previously enabled them. Retries compromise the accurate detection of flaky tests. You should disable retries for accurate detection and use the [Quarantining](../../quarantining/) feature to stop flaky tests from failing your CI jobs.

If you've enabled retries using a plugin like the [test-retry-gradle-plugin](https://github.com/gradle/test-retry-gradle-plugin), disable it when running tests for Trunk Flaky Tests.

## Try It Locally

### The Validate Command

You can validate your test reports using the [Trunk Analytics CLI](../../reference/cli-reference). If you don't have it installed already, you can install and run the `validate` command like this:

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash Linux (x64) theme={null}
  SKU="trunk-analytics-cli-x86_64-unknown-linux.tar.gz"
  curl -fL --retry 3 \
    "https://github.com/trunk-io/analytics-cli/releases/latest/download/${SKU}" \
    | tar -xz

  chmod +x trunk-analytics-cli
  ./trunk-analytics-cli validate --junit-paths "./app/build/test-results/test/*.xml"
  ```

  ```bash Linux (arm64) theme={null}
  SKU="trunk-analytics-cli-aarch64-unknown-linux.tar.gz"
  curl -fL --retry 3 \
    "https://github.com/trunk-io/analytics-cli/releases/latest/download/${SKU}" \
    | tar -xz

  chmod +x trunk-analytics-cli
  ./trunk-analytics-cli validate --junit-paths "./app/build/test-results/test/*.xml"
  ```

  ```bash macOS (arm64) theme={null}
  SKU="trunk-analytics-cli-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz"
  curl -fL --retry 3 \
    "https://github.com/trunk-io/analytics-cli/releases/latest/download/${SKU}" \
    | tar -xz

  chmod +x trunk-analytics-cli
  ./trunk-analytics-cli validate --junit-paths "./app/build/test-results/test/*.xml"
  ```

  ```bash macOS (x64) theme={null}
  SKU="trunk-analytics-cli-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz"
  curl -fL --retry 3 \
    "https://github.com/trunk-io/analytics-cli/releases/latest/download/${SKU}" \
    | tar -xz

  chmod +x trunk-analytics-cli
  ./trunk-analytics-cli validate --junit-paths "./app/build/test-results/test/*.xml"
  ```
</CodeGroup>

**This will not upload anything to Trunk**. To improve detection accuracy, you should **address all errors and warnings** before proceeding to the next steps.

### Test Upload

Before modifying your CI jobs to automatically upload test results to Trunk, try uploading a single test run manually.

You make an upload to Trunk using the following command:

```sh theme={null}
./trunk-analytics-cli upload --junit-paths "./app/build/test-results/test/*.xml" \
    --org-url-slug <TRUNK_ORG_URL_SLUG> \
    --token <TRUNK_ORG_TOKEN>
```

You can find your Trunk organization slug and token in the settings or by following these [instructions](/flaky-tests/get-started/ci-providers/otherci#id-1.-store-a-trunk_token-secret-in-your-ci-system). After your upload, you can verify that Trunk has received and processed it successfully in the **Uploads** tab. Warnings will be displayed if the report has issues.
