TestFairy Gradle Plugin
This plugin integrates TestFairy platform with the Gradle build system. With this plugin, you can upload signed builds directly via command line, IntelliJ, Android Studio and other IDEs.
Installation
A typical TestFairy Gradle Plugin installation takes less than 1 minute.
Installation consists of adding the following to your app module's build.gradle file:
apply plugin: 'testfairy' buildscript {
repositories {
jcenter()
maven {
url 'https://www.testfairy.com/maven'
}
}
dependencies {
classpath 'com.testfairy.plugins.gradle:testfairy:2.+'
}
}
testfairyConfig {
apiKey "1234567890abcdef"
uploadProguardMapping true
}
NOTE: Your TestFairy API key is in your account settings
Usage
With the plugin installed, a set of new tasks, prefixed " testfairy" will be added, one for each build type.
For example: to upload a debug build, run the following from terminal:
gradlew testfairyDebug
Optionally, you can add a changelog to this build. This changelog will appear in your build notes and as a default message when inviting testers. For example:
gradlew -PtestfairyChangelog="Fixed all bugs" testfairyDebug
