Hi Adam,
thanks for this quick reply. I was used to the HelperUtil class, but I've already took a look at the ProjectBuilder class for testing my Plugin implementation. The usage of ProjectBuilder for testing custom tasks is a tiny bit more verbose than using the helperutil class, since by using HelperUtil, I'ts a one liner to create a task instance. I will use it more in the next days and may provide some more feedback. Does anybody else (3party) plugin developer use the ProjectBuilder class?

regards,
René

Hi there,
When working directly on Gradle the HelperUtil.groovy class is really helpful for testing Projects and Tasks. Actually, I am working on a plugin which is a standalone and shipped extra. During the development I would like to reuse the HelperUtil.groovy class from Gradle. Is there a way to get this class into the main sourceset. The simpliest solution I see at the moment is to move this class from the test to the main sourceset.

any opinions or futher ideas?

The idea is that you should use ProjectBuilder, which is included in the distribution. Is ProjectBuilder missing something that HelperUtil has?
the createTask

Have a look at the javadoc for ProjectBuilder: http://gradle.org/1.0-milestone-1/docs/javadoc/org/gradle/testfixtures/ProjectBuilder.html
