  1. Thanks for your blog. It was helpful. But I understood only till Step 7. How and where did you see test gradle task? I am using Selenium Webdriver + Gradle + Intellij + Java + Junit. I have setup the project and its running if I run the individual tests. However I want to use gradle tasks. Can you please elaborate Step 8?
