@kriegaex, thank you for looking at this... the code snippet is an instance of the Groovy Script class which has a set/get Binding method (https://docs.groovy-lang.org/latest/html/api/groovy/lang/Script.html) Before I run the Script I add an object called myDsl via a Binding (https://docs.groovy-lang.org/latest/html/api/groovy/lang/Binding.html). For example, myDsl has a log() method so I can do this:

import spock.util.EmbeddedSpecRunner
def esr = new EmbeddedSpecRunner()
myDsl.log("About to run the test")
esr.runClass(SpockTestClass.class)

However I cannot access the Binding of the Script from within my SpockTestClass as I cannot find a way to pass any pre-instantiated object into a test when using the EmbeddedSpecRunner(). I think the Binding is perhaps confusing my question. A simpler question might be :

import spock.util.EmbeddedSpecRunner

def esr = new EmbeddedSpecRunner()

def myMap = [:]
myMap['hello'] = 'world'

esr.runClass(SpockTestClass.class)

The test class looks like:

import spock.lang.*

class SpockTestClass extends Specification {

    def "hello must be world"() {
        given:
        def value = myMap['hello']

        expect:
        value == 'world'
    }
}

The results are:

groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property: myMap for class: io.platform6.app.core.scripts.rd_spockmain.SpockTestClass
    at SpockTestClass.hello must be world(SpockTestClass:10)

How can I supply a pre-built Object(s) for use within a Specification?
