Spring Cloud Contract Gradle Plugin (2.0.2.RELEASE)
My Kotlin project, a Spring Boot 2.0.5.RELEASE application with a Groovy contract file under src/test/resources/contracts and Base test class being com.mycompany.practice.base.producer.PracticeMessagingBase successfully produces a ContractVerifierTest and opening that file suggests that IntelliJ is happy with the file but running the ./gradlew clean build fails on compileTestGroovy

:compileTestGroovy (Thread[Task worker for ':',5,main]) completed. Took 1.807 secs.
Could I be doing something fundamentally wrong?
If you take a look at the task that is failing - it's compileTestGroovy. Since Groovy can compile java, it's trying to compile the base class. However it can't really compile the base class since it can't access the Kotlin's base class. Just set compileTestGroovy.enabled = false in build.gradle and everything will work fine
