Where to put groovy code in project with java src and groovy tests in order to use them only in groovy tests?

Question

I have src in Java, and tests in Groovy (easyb stories). I run my groovy/easyb stories via maven plugin.

Now I want to write some helpers in groovy to use them in my groovy tests. Where should I put them in my project and what should I configure in addition?

So, the answer is pretty simple... And lives at http://groovy.codehaus.org/Groovy-Eclipse+compiler+plugin+for+Maven

In short:

1. Configure compiler in pom:

       <plugin>
           <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
           <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
           <version>3.1</version>
           <configuration>
               <compilerId>groovy-eclipse-compiler</compilerId>
           </configuration>
           <dependencies>
               <dependency>
                   <groupId>org.codehaus.groovy</groupId>
                   <artifactId>groovy-eclipse-compiler</artifactId>
                   <version>2.8.0-01</version>
               </dependency>
               <dependency>
                   <groupId>org.codehaus.groovy</groupId>
                   <artifactId>groovy-eclipse-batch</artifactId>
                   <version>2.1.8-01</version>
               </dependency>
           </dependencies>
       </plugin>
   

2. Just put groovy files under src/main/groovy

That's it.
