Test groups in spock?

Question

Is there anything like TestNG groups in spock? I want to be able to run from console only fast unit tests or database tests or integration tests or everything. And whenever I run database tests i want to run some setup and teardown before/after this specific group. how can i achieve it using spock?

Answer 1

You can use JUnit(4) suites for defining a set of tests to execute along with setup and teardown code. Filtering can also be done with JUnit categories and/or your build tool of choice. Depending on circumstances, it might be better to automate setup/teardown using the build tool.
