This is a template project which shows how to include custom Lint checks into your Gradle based Android project. You can execute your Lint checks with:
./gradlew lint
Besides that it shows how to write tests for the custom checks. You can execute our custom test with:
./gradlew :lintrules:cleanTest :lintrules:test --tests de.mprengemann.customlint.lintrules.issues.WrongTimberUsageTest

Since the release of com.android.tools.lint:lint-tests:24.3.1 it is recommended to use LintDetectorTest
