Description
Originally reported on Google Code with ID 298
In a Mock throw a checked exception
1 * repository.findOne(42l) >> {throw new NotFoundException("oh no!")}
In the "then" clause use the thrown check to verify the exception
thrown(NotFoundException)
The result is a test failure because groovy wraps the exception with UndeclaredThrowableException.
I think thrown should check for this exception type and check if the type matches the
"undeclaredThrowable" property of UndeclaredThrowableException.
Exception:
Expected exception com.fl.rest.NotFoundException, but got java.lang.reflect.UndeclaredThrowableException

labels.
It's a simple change to the thrown method of Specification that would make working
with checked exceptions & mocks a lot easier.

Research direction
Start at spock.lang.Specification.thrown, shown at Specification.java:232, and reproduce the checked-exception mock case described in the issue. Done means thrown recognizes the underlying NotFoundException instead of reporting only UndeclaredThrowableException, with regression coverage for this scenario.
