I am working with Geb to build a test suite. I’m currently using spock to define test specs. I’m not a fan of the spock annotations and would rather use the JUnit annotations to declare test categories. I have successfully created a working gradle/spock/JUnit annotation test run, as long as each spec is confined to one category. As soon as I change the @Category(TestA.class) to @Category({TestA.class, TestB.class}) it breaks with an error unexpected token @ on line (first annotated line of the spec).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
==WORKS==
@Category(SmokeTests.class)
@Test
def “valid local admin should successfully login” () { do stuff }
==/WORKS==
==BROKEN==
@Category({SmokeTests.class, SanityTests.class})
@Test
def “valid local admin should successfully login” () { do stuff }
==/BROKEN==
Both of the implemetation lines for the test interfaces are declared. I also have smokeTest and sanityTest tasks in the build.gradle file. As stated above, I have successfully run individual tasks where specA is assigned to SmokeTests and specB is assigned to SanityTests and the proper tests are picked up. It’s only when attempting to add a test to multiple categories when things go wrong. If I swap the @Test and @Category lines, the same error is thrown, but it always references the first annotated line.
Error:
unexpected token: @ @ line 22, column 3. @Category({SmokeTests.class, SanityTests.class})
