I have been trying to create a Groovy project with Spock testing in IntelliJ IDEA.
Here are steps that I followed:
Groovyc: Cannot compile Groovy files: no Groovy library is defined for module...
I am probably missing something because I am tired of trying different configurations for half of the day.
For fully groovy project try GMavenPlus
Sample project: https://github.com/mariuszs/groovy-maven-sample
Install GMavenPlus IntelliJ Plugin.
IntelliJ dont recognize source directories . src/main/groovy
, configure this manually as shown below from Project Settings -> Modules window:
Configuration
