The docs <http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/using-elasticsearch-test-classes.html> for unit testing have you configuring your pom in a certain way. Apparently the order of these dependencies matter.
When attempting to use the ElasticsearchIntegrationTest class from a project managed by gradle, the dependencies section would look something like this: dependencies { testCompile 'org.hamcrest:hamcrest-core:1.3' testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12' testCompile 'org.elasticsearch:elasticsearch:1.3.4:tests' testCompile 'org.apache.lucene:lucene-test-framework:4.9.1' testCompile 'com.carrotsearch.randomizedtesting:randomizedtesting-runner:2.1.11' compile 'org.elasticsearch:elasticsearch:1.3.4' } Unfortunately, classpath order is not guaranteed in this world, and so a simple test with ElasticsearchIntegrationTest fails with: java.lang.AssertionError: fix your classpath to have tests-framework.jar before lucene-core.jar __randomizedtesting.SeedInfo.seed([20D50B2CB59AFD95]:0) org.apache.lucene.util.TestRuleSetupAndRestoreClassEnv.before(TestRuleSetupAndRestoreClassEnv.java:177) org.apache.lucene.util.AbstractBeforeAfterRule$1.evaluate(AbstractBeforeAfterRule.java:45) org.apache.lucene.util.TestRuleStoreClassName$1.evaluate(TestRuleStoreClassName.java:42) [...com.carrotsearch.randomizedtesting.*] org.apache.lucene.util.TestRuleAssertionsRequired$1.evaluate(TestRuleAssertionsRequired.java:43) org.apache.lucene.util.TestRuleMarkFailure$1.evaluate(TestRuleMarkFailure.java:48) org.apache.lucene.util.TestRuleIgnoreAfterMaxFailures$1.evaluate(TestRuleIgnoreAfterMaxFailures.java:65) org.apache.lucene.util.TestRuleIgnoreTestSuites$1.evaluate(TestRuleIgnoreTestSuites.java:55) [...com.carrotsearch.randomizedtesting.*] java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745) Do we have a documented story for how to test elasticsearch code with Gradle?
