Maven configuration for Spring and Spock in STS

Question

I have the following maven configuration for spock with spring.

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd">

                </dependency>
            </dependencies>
        </plugin>

    </plugins>
</build>

It works fine in the terminal but in STS/Eclipse, the IDE shows me the following error:

Plugin execution not covered by lifecycle configuration: org.codehaus.gmaven:gmaven-plugin:1.3:testCompile (execution: default, phase: test-compile)

I'm not sure what to add.

See answer to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9142533/plugin-execution-not-covered-by-lifecycle-configuration-jbossas-7-ear-archetype.It could possibly solve your problem. — Adisesha, Mar 20 '13 at 09:14

You can try with,

 <plugin>
        <groupId>org.codehaus.gmavenplus</groupId>
        <artifactId>gmavenplus-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>1.5</version>
        <executions>
            <execution>
                <goals>
                    <!-- Adds Groovy tests source to project's test source -->
                    <goal>addTestSources</goal>
                    <!-- Compiles spock tests -->
                    <goal>testCompile</goal>
                </goals>
            </execution>``
        </executions>
    </plugin>

And also switch to IntelliJ. It is a very good IDE.
