Solution

You are following a tutorial which does not match your OS.

./

is Unix based and you are windows based. If gradlew is in the current directory, then you can run.

.\gradlew createDebugCoverageReport

else, run just

gradlew createDebugCoverageReport

from command line, but that is if gradlew is in the system PATH.

else do

cd \
dir /S gradlew

it will display the path to gradlew, you then just need to cd to it, so let's say it is in C:\Program Files\Gradlew\ you just do

cd "C:\Program Files\Gradlew\"

and run gradlew createDebugCoverageReport from there.
