Using testing frameworks with Groovy

09.19.2007 · Posted in Links

Groovy is great for Agile development in general and testing in particular because:

* it has built-in support for the JUnit testing framework
* it has built-in mocking capabilities
* it provides a very expressive language in which to write tests which can utilise Closure syntax and Groovy’s other features which support the creation of testing domain specific languages (DSLs)
* it can easily leverage Java testing frameworks and IDE support
* its built-in AntBuilder support makes it easy to set up integration tests

This page explores testing features of Groovy and some other testing frameworks that you may sometimes wish to use to complement Groovy’s built-in capabilities.
