i'm currently working on configuring a remote build cache for our gradle build. it seems like when I run ./gradlew test from a command line, i see the cache being used for everything including tests, but if I use intellij to run the same gradle task the cache is not respected, is that something others have come across

Are you running the Gradle task, or are you running the test with delegation to Gradle enabled?

[dix]

i'm running the task

I am not sure if it is still the case but I have previously observed that IDEA pulls down new dependencies again even after running on the commandline first so I think it runs a gradle in a separate environment somehow

[Vampire]

Shouldn't be the case. Except maybe if you use a different Java version.

[Vampire]

Which could actually also the problem of OP

[dix]

so i've noticed that non-test tasks are hitting the cache in intellij; but it seems like the test tasks themselves are not

[Vampire]

Probably because of this init script applied when you run a task from IntelliJ:

String[] ijTestIncludes = ['*']

Class abstractTestTaskClass = null
try {
  abstractTestTaskClass = Class.forName("org.gradle.api.tasks.testing.AbstractTestTask")
} catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
 // ignore, class not available
}

gradle.taskGraph.whenReady { taskGraph ->
  taskGraph.allTasks.each { Task task ->
    if (task instanceof Test || (abstractTestTaskClass != null && abstractTestTaskClass.isAssignableFrom(task.class))) {
      try {
        task.outputs.upToDateWhen { false }
        String[] strings = ['*']
        if(ijTestIncludes != strings) {
          def filter = task.getFilter()
          filter.setIncludePatterns(new String[0])
          ijTestIncludes.each(){ filter.includeTestsMatching "${it}" }
        }
      }
      catch (all) {
        logger.error("", all)
      }
    }
  }
}

that makes total sense; did you already know that was there or did you find it? either way thanks so much

[Vampire]

I knew there were init scripts that they use like most tool integrations do.
I just looked up what exactly is in there.
