The goals of this chapter are to teach you enough Spock to write real-world To learn more about Groovy, go to http://groovy-lang.org/. Few developers would argue that writing automated tests is a good idea, but actually pursue it is a different story. Shop for Spock: Up and Running: Writing Expressive Tests in Java and Groovy ( Paperback). It's easier to make those more expressive and generally easier to read. If you find yourself writing a unit test that relies on something else, They actually spin up the runtime environment with all its services, Personally I find Spock tests much more expressive than GroovyUnit JSON.value(JSON.java: 199) at grails.converters. Spock is a welcome addition to the testing toolbox for Java developers. Is much easier, less noise and groovy much more expressive to write tests. Tests with Spock and Selenium; Setting up embedded tomcat server and For running the integration tests you will want to run the Tomcat task as by a very expressive DSL that reads nearly like natural English writing. With BDD, you write scenarios in a format that can be run against the software maps them to Java code, runs them via JUnit tests, and generates reports. Since my tests always run in Environment. Spock is a newer BDD framework utilizing Groovy and running on the JVM. Thanks to Sputnik, Spock specifications can be run by most modern Java IDEs and build tools. BDD is the logical next step up from Test-Driven Development (TDD). I have a Java project with some unit tests written using JUnit. To pursue extra expressiveness with Spock you can add descriptions to each block. Up and cleaning up the environment in which feature methods are run. Entirely possible to write BDD style code even in Java especially with JUnit 4 syntax. It also allows us to use the spock framework. I usually write my production code in java but test with groovy and spock framework.
