I just cloned the example project geb-grails-example and facing an error related to Spock.

When running the grails (2.0.3) command test-app, I get the following error:

| Server running. Browse to http://localhost:8080/geb-example-grails
| Server stopped
| Tests PASSED - view reports in target\test-reports
| Error Error running script test-app --stacktrace: cannot find shared instance field (NOTE:         Stack trace has been filtered. Use --verbose to see entire trace.)

    I recloned the repo on my new system and all the tests passed. I don’t know the cause for the previous error. Closing the question.
