Experience the power of Develocity for Android developers
Develocity is designed to work seamlessly with Gradle Build Tool, the default build system for Android development. With end-to-end integrations, it’s easy to get started and easy to keep using.

Speed up your builds & tests
Develocity provides an enhanced (remote) build and configuration caching capability, data on Build Cache performance and effectiveness, and test acceleration technologies.
Debug performance bottlenecks
Get comprehensive data and insights for every build with Build Scan®, alongside dashboards that track local/CI build time trends so you can quickly identify build cache misses and other common Android build issues.
Identify and fix flaky tests
Flaky Test Detection helps separate flaky tests from test failures that indicate a real issue in the code, so you can focus on the right stuff. Further configure to include flaky test identification for instrumentation test failures.
Observe resource usage
Develocity tracks CPU, memory, network, and disk metrics on the host machine, helping to identify performance issues in the build and guide configuration improvements based on data, not hypotheses.
Get insights into Artifact Transforms
Artifact Transforms can dramatically streamline your Android development workflow. Develocity provides comprehensive insights into Artifact Transforms to help pinpoint bottlenecks in the build process.
