Example to execute RobotFramework test cases using maven plugin

I spent some time using maven plugin to run the RobotFramework tests. It is OK, run as expected.
But I feel it is a kind of restrictive.

Here I post my one maven pom.xml example.

Execute RobotFramework test cases using Gradle script

I did some research for RobotFramework using maven plugin. But I don't like it. it is too restrictive.Today I tried to implement a Gradle script, it is working, surprising easy.  Here is the code sample.

For details please refer my github repository.

build.gradle

	apply plugin: 'java'
	repositories {
	mavenCentral()
	}
	dependencies {
	runtime group: 'org.robotframework', name: 'robotframework', version: '2.8.7'
	runtime group: 'com.github.markusbernhardt', name:'robotframework-selenium2library-java', version:'1.4.0.7'
	}
	clean{
	delete 'target'
	}
	task(run, type: JavaExec) {
	main = 'org.robotframework.RobotFramework'
	classpath = sourceSets.main.runtimeClasspath
	args '--variable', 'BROWSER:gc'
	args '--outputdir', 'target'
	args 'tests'
	}
	defaultTasks 'run'
