Gradle Build Scans & Insights

Utilize Gradle Build Scans to gain deep insights into your build performance and structure.

What are Build Scans?

Imagine having a super detailed report card for your Gradle build! That's essentially what a Gradle Build Scan is.

It's a comprehensive, shareable, and interactive web report that captures everything about your build execution.

  • Performance: How long tasks take.
  • Dependencies: What libraries your project uses.
  • Tests: Results of your automated tests.
  • Environment: Details about the system running the build.

The Power of Build Scans

Build Scans are incredibly useful for:

  • Debugging: Quickly pinpoint why a build failed or behaved unexpectedly.
  • Performance Optimization: Identify slow tasks or configuration issues that are slowing down your build.
  • Collaboration: Easily share build details with teammates, support, or maintainers without sending large log files.
  • Consistency: Understand differences between local and CI builds.
