Hi @milic-marko, I'm an AI Support assistant here to help with your issue. While the team reviews your request, I wanted to provide some possible tips and documentation that might help you in the meantime.
The error “Project is not a Gradle build server project: demo” indicates the Java language server isn’t recognizing your folder as a Gradle‐imported build. To resolve:
Run Java: Clean Java Language Server Workspace from the Command Palette and reload VS Code
Cannot see Delegate Test to Gradle option in VS Code vscode-gradle#1606 (comment)
Ensure you’ve opened the Gradle root (the folder with settings.gradle or build.gradle) and then use Gradle: Refresh All in the Gradle sidebar so that the build server importer picks it up.
This is a known issue:
The team will respond to your issue shortly. I hope these suggestions are helpful in the meantime. If this comment helped you, please give it a 👍. If the suggestion was not helpful or incorrect, please give it a 👎. Your feedback helps us improve!
