Improving Grails TDD within Eclipse

Grails 1.1 unit testing has support for mocking domain classes/objects. This feature is very nice.

These are additional instructions to the previous ones.

Additional instructions to run a Grails domain class unit test:
1. Copy the below code to a file called [grails app rootdir]/src/java/GrailsAwareGroovyTestSuite.java .
2. Update the Eclipse Run Configuration for the launcher created by the previously posted instructions.
3. Change the Test Class name to "GrailsAwareGroovyTestSuite".
(previous instructions contain the full procedure)

I've posted this to the Grails JIRA, it's GRAILS-4123.

UPDATE: Check the JIRA issue to get the latest version of this code.
