It is ok if a open source project is self-confident but you will win
zero users if a project is arrogant. Let your users decide it it make
sense to execute from a project root. (All tools I know do this, eg
eclipse, intellij etc)
Relaying on the project dir structure is a very common use case for
loading test data, resources etc.
To be honest if we need to change all tests that are relay on a
project structure to be able to use gradle, I would prefer a other
build tool.
If a new users tests gradle and no test working any more, than I'm
very sure he will turn around very quick.
I don't think its quite as bad as you image. To get the maven behaviour
you can either:
- run your tests in fork mode:
test.options.fork()
- set the user.dir property before you run the tests:
test.doFirst { System.setProperty('user.dir', projectDir.absolutePath }
We could even make fork mode the default for tests.
