Depending on what your integration test does, you might be better off with the
ProjectBuilder. This simply creates instances of Project which you can apply
your plugins to to test them. It has the advantage that everything runs
in-process and you don't need a Gradle distribution to make it work at runtime.
If you want to actually run a build, you're pretty much stuck with the tooling
API for now. It might be useful for us to add some kind of test fixture for the
tooling API, so that your test can create a light-weight implementation of
ProjectConnection or perhaps BuildLauncher.
In the meantime, a workaround you can use is to switch the tooling API to
'embedded' mode, via an internal API. This will run the build in the test jvm,
rather than using the daemon:
DefaultGradleConnector connector = (DefaultGradleConnector)
GradleConnector.newConnector();
connector.embedded(true);
// configure and use as per normal
