class Example {

    @Test
    void testBaseClass() {
        new Base().check("FooSpec")
    }

    @Test
    void testChildClass() {
        new Child().check("FooSpec")
    }

}

class Base {
    private static final List<Pattern> PATTERNS = [~/.*Test/, ~/.*Spec/]

    def check(String str) {
        List failures = []

        def result = PATTERNS.findResult { Pattern pattern ->
            if (pattern.matcher(str).matches()) {
                return str
            } else {
                failures.add("Pattern ${PATTERNS.indexOf(pattern)} did not match")
            }
        }
        if (!result) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("Did Match no pattern: "+failures.join(", "))
        }

        return result
    }
}

class Child extends Base {
