Description

The Stub Generator used by the Groovy Joint Compiler lacks tests, and it's easy to break it inadvertently, making people's build failing.

The idea of this ticket is to provide a mechanism and infrastructure to let developers create sets of Java and Groovy sources to jointly compile, using the stub generator, to make certain assertions against the Java code that is generated.

Obviously, once this infrastructure is in place, many data sets will have to be provided.
