Syntax
Method invocation
It is optional to use parentheses on method invocations. So
assertEquals 31, getDaysOnMonth(january)
and
assertEquals(31, getDaysOnMonth(january))
are equivalent. But there are constraints, it is not possible to omit parenthesis on nested calls. On the example above this will be wrong:
assertEquals 31, getDaysOnMonth january // this won't compile!
Meta Object Protocol

Optional return statement
Methods and Closures return a value either as an explicit 'return' statement, or as the value of the last statement in their body.
