Can't run Geb tests using HtmlUnitDriver under Maven

Question

I am running the example Google spec, i.e:

class GoogleHomePageSpec extends GebReportingSpec {

def "first result for wikipedia search should be wikipedia"() {
    given:
    to GoogleHomePage

    expect:
    at GoogleHomePage

    when:
    search.field.value("wikipedia")

    then:
    waitFor { at GoogleResultsPage }

    and:
    firstResultLink.text().startsWith "Wikipedia"

    when:
    firstResultLink.click()

    then:
    waitFor { at WikipediaPage }
}
}

with the following GebSpec:

reportsDir = "target/geb-reports"

/* webdriver.*.driver system properties are set in the POM */
driver = { 
    new HtmlUnitDriver();
}

and the following relevant pom.xml excerpt:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.spockframework</groupId>
        <artifactId>spock-core</artifactId>
        <version>0.7-groovy-2.0</version>
        <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.seleniumhq.selenium</groupId>
        <artifactId>selenium-java</artifactId>
        <version>2.39.0</version>
        <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.gebish</groupId>
        <artifactId>geb-spock</artifactId>
        <version>0.9.2</version>
        <scope>test</scope>
    </dependency>

and it fails with the message if I run it from CLI or IDE:

 First result for wikipedia search should be wikipedia(scratch.GoogleHomePageSpec)  Time elapsed: 0.96 sec  <<< ERROR!

I've checked and the commons-collection jar is present and contains the 'missing' class. I don't get this error at all using ChromeDriver, FirefoxDriver and InternetExplorerDriver.

Unfortunately for environmental reasons I have to use HtmlUnitDriver so I'm really scratching my head about this one.

Would be grateful for any suggestions.

EDIT 1: Have managed to run a portion of this test successfully on my Mac, the remainder times out. But am not seeing the same errors as above (which were observed on Windows).

Did you verify that you are getting the correct version of the commons-collection library, one that has a `ListOrderedSet` class? — Peter Niederwieser, Jan 17 '14 at 18:34
Yes, the jar brought in by maven due to dependency resolution does indeed contain ListOrderedSet. Which is why I'm so confused. — profpfeff, Jan 20 '14 at 10:20

Resolved this problem by rebuilding the maven_repo i.e. moving the old one out of the way so maven is forced to rebuild it on the next run of the tests. The exception no longer appears.
