# TestSpec

@Incubating
interface TestSpec(source)

Provides infrastructure to select which test classes, methods, and packages will be included in the test execution.

A complex example:

    TestLauncher testLauncher = projectConnection.newTestLauncher();
    testLauncher.withTestsFor(specs -> {
        specs.forTaskPath(":test")                                    // configure the test selection on the ':test' task
             .includePackage("org.pkg")                               // execute all tests declared the org.pkg package and its sub-packages
             .includeClass("com.MyTest")                              // execute the MyTest test class
             .includeMethod("com.OtherTest", Arrays.asList("verify")) // execute the OtherTest.verify() test method
             .includePattern("io.*")                                  // execute all tests matching to io.*
    }).run();

All methods on this interface (including the class and method selection) support patterns as arguments. The patterns follow the rules of test filtering.

The test execution will fail if any of the selected classes, methods, or patters have no matching tests.
