Getting tired of downloading the latest driver into your project? You might want to take a look at gradle-download-task. This plugin allows you to download files (over HTTP and HTTPS) to a specific destination directory.
Herewith a simple example:
/** * Include the gradle-download-task plugin */ plugins { id 'de.undercouch.download' version '3.1.0' } apply plugin: 'java' apply plugin: 'eclipse' /** * Import the Download task. This line is optional. * You can of course also always use the full qualified name * when you specify a task of type 'Download'. */ import de.undercouch.gradle.tasks.download.Download /** * The following two tasks download a ZIP file and extract its * contents to the build directory */ task downloadZipFile(type: Download) { src([ 'http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/2.22/chromedriver_mac32.zip', 'https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases/download/v0.9.0/geckodriver-v0.9.0-mac.tar.gz' ]) dest buildDir acceptAnyCertificate true overwrite true } task downloadAndUnzipFile(dependsOn: downloadZipFile, type: Copy) { from zipTree('build/chromedriver_mac32.zip') into 'src/main/resources' from tarTree('build/geckodriver-v0.9.0-mac.tar.gz') into 'src/main/resources' } defaultTasks 'downloadAndUnzipFile'
You only need to update the version numbers (from time to time) and the files will be downloaded and extracted. (eventually in src/main/resources)
