I am not totally convinced by this.  I sort of "gave up" and just re-set
up IntelliJ IDEA with all the plugins I need and a few I've never had
before, and . . . 

. . . the project now all compiles fine.  \o/

Sadly though the TestNG tests do not pass.  Well actually the ones that
execute do but there is something fundamentally broken about how
IntelliJ IDEA is processing the TestNG tests that capture exceptions --
basically IntelliJ IDEA just gets them wrong on my system.  I am hoping
that Szczepan and Peter ran the tests successfully when they tried the
project.

I don't think that was the case, but I can't actually test now as my set
up compiles things.  This is really weird.

I am a sole trader consultant, so I don't have people around I can call
on.  Hence my absolute reliance on great help form mailing lists.  It
has to be said the Groovy and Gradle lists are really good on this
point.  Even for really stupid questions!

I have been trying solely on Debian Testing to date, I guess I should
get my ancient MacBook out ans try on there.

Sequence should be:

--  "bzr branch lp:devjavasoft ADS"
--  "cd ADS"
--  "gradlew idea"
--  start idea
--  open the ADS project
--  try running test of everything in src/test/java

assuming you have Bazaar installed.  If not then it is trivially
"getable" using MacPorts.  If you are not a MacPorts person then I think
there is an DMG installer.  cf.
http://wiki.bazaar.canonical.com/MacOSXDownloads

It seems they haven't Lionized . . . if this is crucial then I guess we
can hassle Martin Pool to get a Lion installer created.

(Bazaar 2.4 was released the other day so the beta is technically a bit
out of date.)
