Description

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 178

I have reproduced this with Geb by creating a test that extends GebSpec and then subclassing
that class.  The parent class is annotated with Stepwise, but the tests in the parent
class do not execute in declared order.  

I have not yet attempted to reproduce this in another, non-Geb-related situation.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue with a test extending GebSpec and then subclassing that class, with @Stepwise on the parent. Start by tracing how Stepwise annotations are handled across the superclass boundary; done means the parent tests execute in their declared order when inherited.
