Hi everyone, I wrote a gradle plugin, I want to integration testing, what suggestions or simple example, it is a bit difficult to get :exploding_head:

gradle test kit, there are some examples in the docs but they are not working for me ootb and I have had to change things to get it working 

My advice would be to not use `withPluginClassPath`  stuff

And instead, publish your plugin to a local repo

This way you test 100% in the same conditions as your users

Besides that, `GradleRunner.create()` works well :thumbsup:

Good idea! I seem to be stuck in the `withPluginClassPath` yesterday

You can declare a dependency like:
```tasks.withType&lt;Test&gt; {
  dependsOn("publishAllPublicationsToPluginTestRepository")
}```
Where `pluginTest` is a local repo that you also use in your test projects

What is the difference between `withPluginClassPath` and not? I think it only allows to not set the version, but rest was equal :thinking_face:

And I am generating/deleting the test in `build` folder too

`withPluginClassPath` somewhat bypasses the Gradle classloaders. Since classloaders can have weird behaviours, I find it reassuring to know my tests run in the same conditions as users.

Please take this to the gradle community slack as this doesn't have anything to do with Kotlin
