12/12/2018, 5:58 AMYes, but Idea 2018.1 (on which AS 3.2 is based) has a lot of tooling problems with Kotlin DSL not even related to Gradle 5.0, but in general Kotlin DSL is supported
UPD: Gradle 5 is not supported in 3.2

12/12/2018, 6:44 AMIf you are using Gradle for Android, you need to move to version 3.4 or higher of both the Android Gradle Plugin and Android Studio.

12/12/2018, 7:16 AMIs it stable enough to use for production apps? Should I just use Intellij Ultimate (I heard the support for android isn't great without AS?)

12/12/2018, 7:37 AMYes, we use 3.3 without issues, it’s already rc1, rc2 is comming

12/12/2018, 7:37 AMDepends on your use case. What do you actually want to use?

12/12/2018, 7:39 AMA multiproject android app with a combination of spek 1.x and junit 4.12 unit tests, they haven't been working together yet... but at least with kotlin dsl I might get docs and hints to see where my configs are wrong...

12/12/2018, 7:41 AMthey haven’t been working together yetthey? Do you mean spek and junit 4? Isn’t Spek based on Junit-Platform

dave08
12/12/2018, 7:41 AMSpek tests run junit 4 reports empty test suite...
dave08
12/12/2018, 7:42 AMYes i'm using the latest junit together with 4.12 support
dave08
12/12/2018, 7:44 AMIf I put includeEngine 'spek', 'junit...' in configs nothing works, I remove both, only spek works 🤔
g
gildor
12/12/2018, 7:46 AMnot sure about Spek, I always though that Spek uses Junit 5 API to run own tests
d
dave08
12/12/2018, 7:46 AMAny known problems with 3.3 in my case?
g
gildor
12/12/2018, 7:47 AMI don’t know any particular ones

dave08
12/12/2018, 7:48 AMI think it does, I used the install instructions from its docs... I really want to migrate out of it, but with this problem I'm forced to keep on writing new spek tests
dave08
12/12/2018, 7:50 AMIs there a way to create another test module in android, one for spek and the other for junit?
g
gildor
12/12/2018, 7:51 AMYes, why not? Just create a new module only with tests and add module that should be tested as dependency, but you cannot test
internalgildor
12/12/2018, 7:52 AMAlso maybe you can just configure test runner for spek and junit4 to use diffferent source paths or something like that
d
dave08
12/12/2018, 7:54 AMI tried putting the RunWith Junit annotation on the junit test class, still no go... where/how could I configure the test runner like that? Any docs on this, I searched alot and couldn't find anything (but then I'm no gradle expert...)
g
gildor
12/12/2018, 8:09 AMYou can configure runner using Gradle Test tasks, see docs, have no particular advices in this case, maybe better to ask in #spek
