About this Presentation
Build tools have evolved slowly over the years and in general have failed to keep up with the ever increasing need to solve complex automation problems. As your project's automation goals become more ambitious you will likely run into the limitations of existing build systems. Gradle is positioning itself to become the de facto build system of the modern continuous delivery age.
This presentation will provide a introduction to Gradle, its features, how it compares to other build systems available and what is coming in the future.
