just search for "Any public interest in separating tests by groups?" in=20
the "grails user" mailing list.
There is a patch which may solve your problem.
I hope, it will be applied to a coming grails version.
Best regards

RE: [Webtest] Canoo + Grails
Hi Dierk, and all,
webtest embedded into the grails development process is absolutely great
to use. Thanks very much for your groovy-fication!
The only thing I wonder is, how one would get out the webtest step
properties into the groovy script for further processing. I am sure there
is a groovy way to interact between webtest properties and groovy
variables, but cannot find it.
Another question is (for may be including in the documentation), how to
define more than one test suites (beside the standard
webtest/tests/TestSuite.groovy) and how to invoke them.
Cheers,
Niko
