Prebuild Hooks

PreExecutionAction

PreExecutionActions allows for actions to happen before gradle is executed.

Usage for PreExecutionAction:

addPreExecute(new PreExecutionAction() {
    @Override
    void execute(File projectDir, List<String> arguments, List<String> jvmArguments) {
        initScript.text = '''
        gradle.projectsLoaded {
            gradle.rootProject.tasks.create('foo')
        }
        '''.stripIndent()
    }
})

The PreExecutionAction lets you automatically add steps to the test that get executed just before run is called. This is particularly useful when tests change a value that is needed during the execution allowing the action to be defined in a setup, and delayed until the execution.
