Groovy get current methods annotation

Question

I created a java interface for my annotation. I am now writing a geb spock test and I would like to print the annotation values so it shows in the gradle report. Is this possible? Here is my test case and let me know if I am doing this wrong

class Checkout extends GebReportingSpec {

    @TestCase(someID="12345")
    def "A checkout 3-D script"() {
        // My test steps.....
    }
}

Use StackTraceUtils.sanitize to get the current method and use reflection to iterate through the annotations:

import java.lang.annotation.*

import org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.StackTraceUtils

class Checkout {
  @TestCase(someID="12345")
  def "yeah a"() {
    printTestCaseId()
    // My test steps.....
  }

  def printTestCaseId() {
    def stack = StackTraceUtils.sanitize(new Throwable()).stackTrace[1]
    def method = getClass().declaredMethods.find { it.name == stack.methodName }
    println method
    def someID = method.annotations[0].someID()
    println someID
    assert someID == "12345"
  }

}

@Retention (RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@interface TestCase { String someID() }

co = new Checkout()
co."${'yeah a'}"()

The StackTraceUtils is not needed if you are the one iterating through the methods.
