=== Running all checks
It is common for _all_ verification tasks, including tests and linting, to be executed using the `check` task:

----
$ gradle check
----

=== Cleaning outputs
You can delete the contents of the build directory using the `clean` task. Doing so will cause pre-computed outputs to be lost, causing significant additional build time for the subsequent task execution:

----
$ gradle clean
----

      - master

It synchronizes the contents of a directory with its source.

This can be useful for doing things such as installing your application, creating an exploded copy of your archives, or maintaining a copy of the project's dependencies.

The method call returns the Ant data type, which you can use directly in your build script.
In the following example, we create an Ant `path` object, then iterate over the contents of it:

====
include::sample[dir="snippets/ant/useAntType/kotlin",files="build.gradle.kts"]
include::sample[dir="snippets/ant/useAntType/groovy",files="build.gradle"]
