Gradle NoClassDefFoundError - gradle

Question

So I am trying build a simple gradle app and when I run it, I getting
geb.ConfigurationLoader$UnableToLoadException: Unable to load configuration # 'file:/Users/john/Development/groovy/gradlegebautomation/build/resources/test/GebConfig.groovy' (with environment: null)

So I created the folder structure src/test/groovy and src/main/groovy. I also created inside of test/groovy, another folder called store. So I can get this to work if I put the GebConfig.groovy in the src/test/groovy and src/test/groovy/store. Anything else I get the error above. Here is my build.gradle
apply plugin: 'groovy'
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
groovy group: 'org.codehaus.groovy', name: 'groovy', version: '2.0.5'
groovy group: 'org.apache.ivy', name:'ivy', version:'2.2.0'
compile 'org.codehaus.groovy:groovy-all:2.0.5'
testCompile 'junit:junit:4.11'
testCompile 'org.spockframework:spock-core:0.7-groovy-2.0'
testCompile 'org.gebish:geb-spock:0.9.0-RC-1'
testCompile 'org.seleniumhq.selenium:selenium-firefox-driver:2.31.0'
}
Here is my test
package groovy.store
import geb.spock.GebReportingSpec
class SimpleSpec extends GebReportingSpec {
def "Doing a simple Guest checkout"() {
given: "A test"
def hello
when: ""
hello = "Hello"
then:
assert hello == "Hello"
}
}
Thoughts?
UPDATE v1:
Ok, it looks like I needed to add a new dependency in my build.gradle. I added the ivy dep and now I am getting this error:

Here is my GebConfig

// default is to use firefox
driver = {

driver.manage().window().maximize()
return driver
}
environments {
'firefox' {
driver = {

driver.manage().window().maximize()
return driver
}
}
}
UPDATE V2:
Oh, I see if I go a little higher in the stack I see the following:
startup failed:
Could not instantiate global transform class org.spockframework.compiler.SpockTransform specified at jar:file:/Users/john/.gradle/caches/artifacts-23/filestore/org.spockframework/spock-core/0.7-groovy-2.0/jar/4de0b428de0c14b6eb6375d8174f71848cbfc1d7/spock-core-0.7-groovy-2.0.jar!/META-INF/services/org.codehaus.groovy.transform.ASTTransformation because of exception org.spockframework.util.IncompatibleGroovyVersionException: The Spock compiler plugin cannot execute because Spock 0.7.0-groovy-2.0 is not compatible with Groovy 1.8.6.

UPDATE v3:
So I added regular groovy into my dependencies, see above. I am not passing the compile stage and failing at the test stage. Here is the message that is coming up in the report

Answer 1

what bothered me first on this one was that there was no choice of which environment to be used from the config file; your first list said:
favorite
So I am trying build a simple gradle app and when I run it, I getting
Unable to load configuration # 'file:/Users/john/Development/groovy/gradlegebautomation/build/resources/test/GebConfig.groovy' (with environment: null)
so i'm probably off on this but i'd try to give it a choice as to which environment to use, say .environment('firefox') - sorry forgot the syntax
