	Minimum version	Default version	Notes
Gradle	2.2.1	2.2.1	To learn more, see updating Gradle.
SDK Build Tools	21.1.1	21.1.1	Install or configure SDK Build Tools.

General Notes:

• Enhanced support for running unit tests with Gradle.
  • Added support to include Java-style resources in the classpath when running unit tests directly from Gradle.
  • Added unit test dependency support for Android Archive (AAR) artifacts.
  • Added support for the unitTestVariants property so unit test variants can be manipulated using the build.gradle file.
  • Added the unitTest.all code block under testOptions to configure customized tasks for unit test. The following sample code shows how to add unit test configuration settings using this new option:

    android {
      testOptions {
        unitTest.all {
          jvmArgs '-XX:MaxPermSize=256m' // Or any other gradle option.
        }
      }
    }
    

    android {
      testOptions {
        unitTest.all {
          jvmArgs += listOf("-XX:MaxPermSize=256m") // Or any other gradle option.
        }
      }
    }
                

  • Fixed the handling of enums and public instance fields in the packaging of the mockable-android.jar file.
  • Fixed library project task dependencies so test classes recompile after changes.
• Added the testProguardFile property to apply ProGuard files when minifying a test APK.
• Added the timeOut property to the adbOptions code block for setting the maximum recording time for Android Debug Bridge screen recording.
• Added support for 280 dpi resources.
• Improved performance during project evaluation.
