Hey all, Please enlist to #5101 as it is the follow up actions post 1.6

@emmanuelbernard Would you consider including #9738 in the list?
Bootstrap (and thus unit testing with @QuarkusTest) does not work in Gradle projects when invoking tests from within an IDE.

[emmanuelbernard]

@jskovjyskebankdk yes that makes sense CC @glefloch

[glefloch]

Yes I'm still working on it, I will open a draft PR ASAP.

I think #11388 is essential for beginners to be able to use gradle safely. Without it Gradle users will experiencing problems that maven users have not seen before and thus might frustrate them quickly.

This was in the 1.7 roadmap, but it was missed.

What is the new expectation?

[JuanCamiloRada]

#13579 should be consider too as part of this ticket.

[julianseeger]

#2811 should be part of this. Quarkus+Gradle+Kotlin=fail

[glefloch]

Should we consider moving gradle out of beta for Quarkus 2.0 ?

[aloubyansky]

I think we should review the current state and see what's missing for that.
Let's get the call conditional deps in first though.

Hi,

is there any plan to move this out of beta? As it is currently blocking jib extension for GraalVM for gradle - see here: GoogleContainerTools/jib-extensions#72

@postol sorry, I spread misinformation in GoogleContainerTools/jib-extensions#72. Jib already has a Quarkus extension for Gradle (but note the Jib Quarkus extension is not about native image), and GoogleContainerTools/jib-extensions#72 has nothing to do with Quarkus. I updated the Jib issue accordingly.

thanks for clarifying @chanseokoh.
