How to skip testing when building

[hongshuai1994]

I cloned the project to the local and executed the .\gradlew.bat build -x test command, but it seemed that the test was still executed because the build error was reported as follows.

> Task :exporters:otlp:all:testOkHttpVersionLATEST FAILED

FAILURE: Build completed with 2 failures.

Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 9.0.

You can use '--warning-mode all' to show the individual deprecation warnings and determine if they come from your own scripts or plugins.

For more on this, please refer to https://docs.gradle.org/8.8/userguide/command_line_interface.html#sec:command_line_warnings in the Gradle documentation.

I tried to manually skip the test that reported an error, but there were other tests that reported errors. Is the way I skipped the test wrong?

I'm not sure if there's a more elegant way to achieve this, but if you run a ./gradlew tasks you will see that there are more test modules than just test:

test - Runs the test suite.
testAutoConfigureOrder - Runs the test auto configure order suite.
testConditionalResourceProvider - Runs the test conditional resource provider suite.
testFullConfig - Runs the test full config suite.
testGrpcJava - Runs the test grpc java suite.
testGrpcNetty - Runs the test grpc netty suite.
testGrpcNettyShaded - Runs the test grpc netty shaded suite.
testGrpcOkhttp - Runs the test grpc okhttp suite.
testGrpcSenderProvider - Runs the test grpc sender provider suite.
testHttpSenderProvider - Runs the test http sender provider suite.
testJdkHttpSender - Runs the test jdk http sender suite.
testJpms - Runs the test jpms suite.
testOkHttpVersion4.11.0 - Runs the test ok http version4 11 0 suite.
testOkHttpVersionLATEST - Runs the test ok http version latest suite.
testSpanPipeline - Runs the test span pipeline suite.
testStrictContext - Runs the test strict context suite.

I think you can skip them all with something like:

./gradlew build \
    -x test \
    -x testAutoConfigureOrder \
    -x testConditionalResourceProvider \
    -x testFullConfig \
    -x testGrpcJava \
    -x testGrpcNetty \
    -x testGrpcNettyShaded \
    -x testGrpcOkhttp \
    -x testGrpcSenderProvider \
    -x testHttpSenderProvider \
    -x testJdkHttpSender \
    -x testJpms \
    -x testOkHttpVersion4.11.0 \
    -x testOkHttpVersionLATEST \
    -x testSpanPipeline \
    -x testStrictContext
