checklistB6 checks whether targetSDK >= some given version number(defaults to 29)
checklistB7 checks whether compileSDK >= some given version number(defaults to 29)
checklistB8 checks whether the dependencies have specific version numbers instead of -SNAPSHOT and +
checklistB9 checks whether apk/aar is debuggable
checklistB10 checks whether Google play services api is included as separate dependencies
checklistDIST2 verifies aar size
checklistGEN1 checks whether git branch name has the given prefix
checklistGEN2 reminds to make sure that basic functionality of the app is fully working

checklistGEN4 verifies permissions, locales and densities
checklistGEN5 checks that unit tests ran and did not fail

checklist Main task that generates HTML report

In addition to the predefined tasks, one can add custom tasks to the list. Refer to [Adding Custom Task](#Adding Custom Task)

Setup

  1. Add classpath 'com.commencis.checklist:checklist:$checklistVersion' to your project level build.gradle file.
  2. Add apply plugin: 'com.commencis.checklist.plugin' to your module level build.gradle file.
  3. If you have product flavors, you need to set the flavor you want to run checklist inside the checklist extension block.
checklist{
    flavorName = "myFlavor"
}
  • Don't forget to consider dimensions as well. For example, if you have
   flavorDimensions "dim1", "dim2"
    productFlavors {
        flavor1 {
            dimension "dim1"
        }
        flavor2{
            dimension "dim2"
        }
    }

on your build.gradle file, then you need to set flavorName parameter as

checklist{
    flavorName = "flavor1Flavor2"
}

Basic Usage

To use Checklist Plugin you can simply run

./gradlew checklist

It will automatically generate an HTML report to <module>/build/checklist/report.html file.

Customization

Adding Custom Task

To add a custom task for your project, you should:

  1. Create a task of type com.commencis.checklist.task.ChecklistTask
  2. Override taskCode, taskDescription, taskType(optionally) and taskAction
  3. Don't forget to return com.commencis.checklist.task.ChecklistTaskResult instance at the end of taskAction
Example
task example(type: ChecklistTask){
    taskCode = "Example"
    taskDescription = "Description"

    taskAction {
        println("Some action!")
        new ChecklistTaskResult(taskCode, ChecklistTaskStatus.SUCCESS, taskDescription)
    }
}

Configuration

You can change the values of many tasks. To do this you should create a block for ChecklistPluginExtension on your build.gradle file.

Example
checklist{
    minSDKVersion = 21
    applicationIdConvention = "com.mycompany.myapp"
}
Configurable Variables
Variable Type Description Default Value
minSDKVersion Integer Indicates the minimum sdk version of the project 16
targetSDKVersion Integer Indicates the target sdk version of the project 29
compileSDKVersion Integer Indicates the compile sdk version of the project 29
applicationIdConvention String Indicates the applicationId prefix of the project ""
resConfigs List Indicates the resource configs used in the project ["en", "tr"]
branchPrefix String Indicates the git branch prefix "version/"
allowedInstallLocations List Indicates the allowed android:installLocation values [InstallLocationValue.AUTO, InstallLocationValue.INTERNAL_ONLY]

Skipping Tasks

You can skip default tasks you don't want to execute. They will be present on the generated HTML report as skipped.

To skip tasks, you should set skippedTasks : List<String> variable of the ChecklistPluginExtension.

Example
checklist{
    skippedTasks = ["checklistB5", "checklistB6"]
}

Requirements

To use Checklist Plugin you need at least:

  • Android Gradle Plugin 3.3.0
  • Gradle Wrapper 4.10.1
