Gradle: run test only when specific parameter is given

I want to run a specific unit test only when I am doing a PR build. During this build I can pass a parameter eg. 'buildType' to specify that it is a PR build.

The test should never run if the buildType isn't explicitly PR build.

How could I achieve such behaviour?

Do I create separate task that I can configure this way somehow. Or do I even create another module?

Actual exclusion will depend on what testing library you are using. For example with JUnit5 you could do this with tags.

You would start by excluding tests tagged with @Tag("PR") from normal test task. Then you would define specific task such as prTest that also includes tests tagged with @Tag("PR").

test {
    useJUnitPlatform {
        excludeTags 'PR'
    }
}

task prTest(type: Test) {
    useJUnitPlatform {
        includeTags 'PR'
    }
    shouldRunAfter test
}
