At JetBrains, we are constantly working on improving our products and tools, many of which are open-source projects. You may have recently noticed some increased activity around our Gradle IntelliJ Plugin project, which we would like to introduce to you in this webinar as it has just reached v1.0!

Another important facet for the 2021.2 release cycle is the increased security in JetBrains Marketplace and all of our IDEs. We’ll tell you all you need to know about that.

And last but not least, this webinar will feature a special guest from VirtusLab who will share their experience of UI testing.

During the webinar, we will discuss:

How to work with the Gradle IntelliJ Plugin?
What did we introduce in Gradle IntelliJ Plugin 1.0?
What is Plugin Signing, and how will it affect your plugin development or daily use of IntelliJ-based IDEs?
How to test the UI of your plugin and probe the state of a running IDE.
Talks:

Jakub Chrzanowski

Gradle IntelliJ Plugin – What’s That, and What’s New?

We recently released the Gradle IntelliJ Plugin 1.0 – an extension to the Gradle build system and the preferred solution for creating IntelliJ Platform plugins. Jakub will introduce the tool, talk about what has changed in the 1.0 release, and tell you about some neat new integrations with the other JetBrains tools.

Plugin Signing in Marketplace – It’s All About Trust

We’re rolling out a plugin-signing mechanism we implemented recently. Semyon will tell you all about ZIP signatures, the verification process, the available tools, and everything that will be able to benefit from this mechanism.

Paweł Lipski

Testing the UI of Your IntelliJ Plugin

Paweł’s presentation will include a demo of UI tests running for the Git Machete plugin. He will demonstrate how to probe the state of a running IDE from inside tests running under Gradle, and share some tips and tricks on how to make the setup suitable for a headless CI environment.
