I have been doing a bit of programming recently.  I'm giving Test Driven
Development a go and have decided on using groovy Gradle instead of Ant for
all of my projects.  *(Aside: It feels premature to migrate to Kotlin
Gradle right now under NB IDE 19.)*

I would like to suggest adding a test debug task that is basically
equivalent to

*test --debug-jvm*

to the gradle task navigator panel and the RMB menu on a project
(sub-project).

This task activates the debugger when testing.  I have added this task via
the project properties in the meantime.


May I also mention a separate problem I have noticed while thinking about
this suggestion?
I use TestNG for my testing.  Creating a TestNG Test Case using the IDE
menus doesn't seem to work. I haven't figured out why or confirmed it is
not a problem I have introduced somehow in a previous version of NB IDE.  I
hand-craft the files presently as a workaround, which is not too time
consuming.

I really appreciate the effort that goes into NB IDE.
