# Develocity for Gradle

<a id="preamble"></a>

Develocity for Gradle integrates through the Develocity Gradle plugin, publishing a Build Scan for each build and connecting it to the Develocity remote Build Cache. Each Build Scan is a permanent, shareable record for troubleshooting failures, analyzing performance, and tracking build behavior, while the Build Cache speeds up builds by reusing task outputs across machines and CI.

## Key Capabilities

*   Publish a Build Scan for your Gradle builds, capturing the console log, test results, and performance insights in a shareable record
    
*   Accelerate builds with the Develocity remote Build Cache by reusing task outputs across developer machines and CI
    
*   Analyze build performance, dependency resolution, and task cacheability directly from each Build Scan
    
*   Compare two Build Scans to pinpoint why incremental build or Build Cache reuse did not occur
    
*   Enrich Build Scans with custom tags, values, and links, and integrate with your CI tools and IntelliJ IDEs
