How do you execute a built in gradle task in a doFirst/doLast closure?

Question

I don\'t know if I\'m not doing this right or if i have to handle builtin gradle tasks differently but i have a test task that i defined like this

task testN         


        

Answer 1

Executing a task from another task isn't (and never was) officially supported. Try to use task dependencies instead, e.g. taskA.dependsOn(testNGTests).
