We should keep the security tests. When converting from Ant to Gradle we never 
got
around to making those tests work. We should. We'd no doubt have users relying 
on
some of Groovy's special security handling. From memory the groovy.policy file 
has
entries like: "file:${user.dir}/target/classes/-" in it but when running from 
IDEA
it might need to be something like: "file:${user.dir}/out/test/-" and maybe
"out/production" as well ... and different again for Gradle and possibly 
trickier?
We might be just able to call out to Ant if that is easier.

But +1 though on getting rid of GroovyJarTest.jar if we can - if we can keep
roughly the same functionality.

Cheers, Paul.

Hello everybody,

what about removing "/security" and "src/test/groovy/security" from the repo?

They are just a few test and it looks like no work has been done on them since 
2007.

Security Test are not run in the Groovy Gradle build since 20.03.2012. I do not 
know if they ran in the old Ant build. Not a single test succeeds at the moment 
when I run them in IntelliJ.

What do you think?

Cheers,
Pascal
