Run JUnit test in IntelliJ IDEA 14 without choosing configuration type

In IntelliJ IDEA 14 with Gradle plugin I would like to run JUnit test without being asked about configuration type. Problem occurs when I run test for the first time - there is no configuration for this run. I never run tests with Gradle in IDE so it would be acceptable to disable running test with Gradle. How to run JUnit test directly?

IntelliJ IDEA 14 - run test

The Gradle Test Runner configuration looks a bit different in IntelliJ 2019.2 :

enter image description here

To have Intellij rather than Gradle run your tests when you right-click on the test/Test Class/Test package select IntelliJ IDEA for the "Run tests using:" option.

Having IntelliJ run your test means that a Junit configuration is created to run the test.

When I upgraded IntelliJ 2019.1 to 2019.2 I found that the default setting for the Gradle runner was set to 'Gradle' which meant that my unit tests didn't run properly when I right-clicked on a test and selected 'Run' - they just terminated with no results. I had to change the "Run tests using:" option to IntelliJ IDEA

Go to setting > Build, Execution, Deployment > Build Tools > Gradle > Runner and choose "Platform Test Runner" in "Run test using"

You can get rid of this annoying by adding

idea.gradle.prefer.idea_test_runner=true

to idea.properties file located in the bin directory of the IntelliJ IDEA installation. Then restart IDEA and enjoy.
