Eclipse - Java - Gradle is skipping jacocoTestReport

I was able to generate the code coverage results with the following set up.

 apply plugin: 'jacoco'
 jacocoTestReport {
   reports {
   xml.enabled false
   csv.enabled false
   html.destination "${buildDir}/jacocoHtml"
 }
}

The task will only run if coverage data is available. You can make sure of that by also running the test task.
