Dawid Weiss commented on LUCENE-5755:
-------------------------------------

RandomizedRunner and Ant's launcher for randomized testing are two different 
things. The launcher for Ant does more things than just isolate/ fork the 
subprocess JVM. See here for an overview.

java.lang.RuntimeException: Suite class 
org.apache.lucene.util.TestVirtualMethod$TestClass1 should be public
{code}
You need to filter out nested classes from the pattern; these are not tests.

I'm not saying gradle's test runner cannot be used -- it probably can be -- but 
you'll lose some of the functionality specifically written for Lucene (such as 
load balancing, cwd isolation or master seed propagation).

> I am dissatisfied with how ANT and submodules currently work in Lucene/ Solr. 
> It's not even the tool's fault; it seems Lucene builds just hit the borders 
> of what it can do, especially in terms of submodule dependencies etc.
> I don't think Maven will help much too, given certain things I'd like to have 
> in the build (for example collect all tests globally for a single execution 
> phase at the end of the build, to support better load-balancing).
> I'd like to explore Gradle as an alternative. This task is a notepad for 
> thoughts and experiments.
> An example of a complex (?) gradle build is javafx, for example.
