             Summary: Implement Gradle Wrapper for smoke tests
                 Key: BIGTOP-1384
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-1384
             Project: Bigtop
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Tests
    Affects Versions: backlog
            Reporter: jay vyas


By adding a the infamous *gradle wrapper script* (this is the idiom in gradle - to use the wrapper instead of a local gradle install) into our VCS, we gaurantee that the gradle tricks we implement will be running the exact same on all systems, no matter what.

- Also, it opens the tests up to be runnable by anyone, even those who don't have gradle installed.

- Finally, gradle wrapper will embolden us to be able to use more sophisticated gradle tricks newer features, b/c we will know that they run the same in all environments.
