[ANN] Spock 0.7 Released

[Peter Niederwieser]

Dear Spock Community,

I'm pleased to announce that Spock 0.7 has been released. As usual, it is available from Maven Central (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/spockframework).

All Spock 0.7 Jars come in two variants: `-groovy-1.8` for Groovy 1.8.x, and `-groovy-2.0` for Groovy 2.x. Please make sure to use the variant that's right for you. If you aren't tied to a particular Groovy version, we recommend that you use the Groovy 2.x variant.

The highlights of this release are:

 * New reference documentation

 * Much improved stubbing and mocking

 * Official Groovy 2.x support

See http://docs.spockframework.org/en/spock-0.7-groovy-2.0/new_and_noteworthy.html#id1 for detailed information on all new features.

An updated Grails plugin will follow within the next few days at the usual place (http://grails.org/plugin/spock).

We would love to get your feedback on this release. If you have anything to say, please reach out to us on http://forum.spockframework.org. In particular, we would like to hear how the new Groovy mocking features work out for our Grails users.

One more thing: The next release is going to be 1.0! The highest priority for 1.0 is to complete the reference documentation.

Cheers,

Peter

Congratulations. The best thing that can happen for 1.0 release is the business friendly reporting. We have 1200 + acceptance tests written using Spock and not able to have a business friendly report is not enabling the business folks to contribute. Pleaseeeeee add this feature.

[Paul]

All of our unit and integration tests worked perfectly with the latest version. However, our geb-spock tests failed to compile with Maven and eclipse with the following error:
The type org.spockframework.mock.MockController cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files

I tried with the groovy 2.0 version. We are using geb-spoc 0.7.2. Is this something I should report to the geb team?

Thank you.

[Peter Niederwieser]

This will be fixed once geb-spock releases a new version compiled against Spock 0.7. I'll let them know. Hopefully, we'll find a way to avoid this tight coupling by the time Spock goes 1.0.

Cheers,

Peter

Is there any documentation (or a blog post) on how to use damage-control/report?

Hi,

I am looking to use Spock 0.7 version on my Grails project.  But, I don't see spock 0.7 grails plugin released.

When can I expect spock 0.7 Grails plugin?

In the coming days. 

I'm actively working on it, but there are some complications.

Thanks,

Abhi

Could you please give an update on when Geb will work with spock 0.7?

Thank you.

[Chanwit Kaewkasi]

Hi Luke,

Great to know that you've been working on it. Thank you for your hard work.

Could you please also having a test for GroovySpy over Grails domain classes?
I've found that GroovySpy does not work on Grails domain classes, but
it's working fine with normal Java classes, for example, class Java's
Math.

(ps. I've built Spock 0.7 plugin myself and been testing it locally.
This is a problem I've encountered so far.)

Best regards,

Can you give more details on this please.

All I can say is soon. I'll be working on it this weekend, but may not get it done then.

Here's steps to reproduce.
1. create a domain class in Grails, say:

class Domain {
static findWithSomething(int id) { return 10 }
}

2. In a Spock's spec, you have a setup clause like this:

setup:
GroovySpy(Domain, global: true)
Domain.findWithSomething(1) >> 20

When you call Domain.findWithSomething(1) it always return 10 (from
the real one), not 20.

This bug does not affect Java classes, say Math. You can partially
mock Math.power() as the Spock's example shows.
So I am guessing that it's only happening when we use Spock under the
Grails environment.

Best regards,

This is unlikely to work, because Spock needs a custom meta class to do it's thing and the Grails unit testing support is metaclass based.

You should ask on the Grails list if you can disable the implicit Grails test support mixins so it leaves the metaclass alone.

Hi,

     Just checking in to see if you have any ETA on when geb will be compatible with spock 0.7.


 Thank you.

[Luke Daley]

The just released 0.9.0-RC-1 is compiled against Spock 0.7 (so requires it).

Hi Behrang,

It seems to be a general Grails issue.
Try turning legacyResolve true in your BuildConfig.groovy.

HTH,

Hi Luke,

Is the MockController issue resolved? I have upgraded our project's spock to 0.7-groovy-2.0, and Geb to 0.9.0-RC-1, but I still get the compilation error.

In particular, here is the relevant parts of our project's config:

grails.project.dependency.resolution = {

    dependencies {

        test "org.spockframework:spock-grails-support:0.7-groovy-2.0"

    }

    plugins {

        test ":geb:0.9.0-RC-1"

        test(":spock:0.7") {

            exclude "spock-grails-support"

        }

    }

}

And here's the error message:

In my case I was pulling in an old spock-6 dependency through transitive resolution.

Try running grails dependency-report and look for spock-6 and exclude it from the dependency which pulls it in.
