What gradle task can I use to build a multimodule KMP project without running tests? build runs tests (I think it depends on check)

[ephemient]

the lifecycle task (in all Gradle projects, multiplatform or not, same as Maven and Ant) for "makes binaries but not tests" is assemble

Oh interesting, I thought that was Android only

I use „build -x test“ 😄

FYI build -x test doesn't exclude most of kmp tests since they're named as jsBrowserTest jvmTest and so on.

Interestingly it works for me. But to be extra sure one might add "-x allTests"

For more detailed task dependencies you can have a look at this 🙂

@Mustafa Ozhan where did you find that image in documentation?

[Mustafa Ozhan]

I am not sure if it is in the documentation but you can simply search for gradle task dependencies in google and open the images, this is just one of them:

maybe order of the pictures can be different per user

ahh ok ...I was searching for it in the documentation 😆

It's from the gradle java plugin docs https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/java_plugin.html
