While a lot of Gradle source code runs only in the Gradle daemon, not all of it does and so, when working on some source code it is important to be aware of the runtimes in which it will run.

See [Gradle runtimes](runtimes.md) for a list of these runtimes and more details.

## Build state model

As Gradle executes, it acts on various pieces of the build definition, such as each project in the build.

  - Select `Manually`.
  - Give it a name. The name will be displayed on TeamCity web UI. We highly recommend it be capitalized from the branch name, i.e. `MyTestBranch`.
  - The project ID will be auto-generated as `Gradle_MyTestBranch`. If not, you probably selected wrong parent, the "Parent project" should be `Gradle`.
