Test results pane doesn't launch when executing a root project task that depends subproject test task(s)

[tcfurrer]

I tried to set up the "test" task in my root project build scripts to depend on all subprojects test tasks, so that executing "test" on the root project in netbeans would execute all tests in all subprojects. This works fine, except that the test results pane doesn't launch when tests have completed.

Expectation is that when executing any subproject test task even just to satisfy dependencies of a root project task, the test results pane should still launch afterward, on every subproject whose test task executed.

Is this possible?

If not, I guess I can approximate it by generating HTML reports and automatically launching the default browser on them, but it would be better to have results available in the netbeans test results pane.

In case it matters, I'm using:

gradle 4.8
netbeans 8.2
junit 5.2.0
gradle plugin 1.4.3
on both windows and linux
