Gradle How to exclude some tests

In this tutorial, we will show you a few examples to exclude some tests in Gradle. Review the following two unit test classes

1. com.mkyong.helloworld.TestController.class
2. com.mkyong.example.TestExample.class

1. Package level RegEx

1. Any test classes from this package com/mkyong/example/ will be excluded.

test {
    exclude 'com/mkyong/example/**'

In this example, test class TestExample.class will be excluded.

2. Class name RegEx

Any test classes from any package with this class name pattern *Controller* will be excluded.

test {
    exclude '**/*Controller*'

In this example, Test class TestController.class will be excluded.

3. Single Test

In this example, only the TestController.class will be excluded.

test {
    exclude '**/TestController.class'

or, use the exact location.

test {
    exclude 'com/mkyong/helloworld/TestController.class'

Done.
