Spock- ignore spec method for a subclass

Question

I have a test spec in Spock and I want to apply the same tests to another alternative with exception of one method. I extend the original spec, implement some custom stuff related to the alternative and would really like to exclude the execution of one test method.

I tried it with

@Ignore
def "Something must work in a certain way"() {
    //No implementation
}

but it seems that the method is called anyway.

Can this be achieved?

You can't override an inherited test method, nor can you ignore it (at least not without writing your own Spock extension). – Leiker

Verify the import statement for @Ignore. It should be imported from spock library instead of JUnit:

import spock.lang.Ignore

instead of

import org.junit.Ignore
