Is it possible to skip the setup() method for certain features?

[jc]

Just curious, let's say I have 20 tests in a class but 2 of the tests have slightly different requirements than what I have in the setup() method.  Is there a way to have those 2 tests skip the setup()?  I know I can just create separate methods and put them in the appropriate tests, but I was just curious if there was an easy way to skip setup(), if at all possible.

Thanks!

Hi Jeremy,

This is a bit more of a Spock question than Geb question so probably asking on StackOverflow and tagging your question with spock would get you more responses to it.

Anyhow, when I find myself wanting to apply code from setup() method in a spec to only a subset of feature methods then I either:

- move the code from setup() into a different method and then call that method at the top of each feature method I want the setup code to apply to
- split the spec into two - one which contains all of the methods that I want the setup code in question applied to and one with methods that I don't want the setup code applied to.

As far as I can tell there is no way to apply code from setup() to only a subset of methods in the spec without splitting things up a bit.

Cheers,

Marcin
