how do I exclude a task from another task?

[bezrukov]

gradlew someTask -x anotherTask

[Bernhard]

not via command line

[Bernhard]

globally for every run

[bezrukov]

do not use build then, try to just assemble

[Bernhard]

intellij calls build afaik

[Bernhard]

and other tools

[bezrukov]

you can try to disable test tasks:

tasks.whenTaskAdded { task ->
    if (task.name.contains("Test")) {
        task.enabled = false
    }
}

[Bernhard]

will I still be able to run ./gradle test though

[Bernhard]

also this example doesn't compile
