Testing a custom build of chromium, with chromedriver 2.9/selenium-chrome-driver:2.40.0

Running spec extending GebSpec everything works as expected, but as soon as I extend GebReportingSpec and run the same spec, I receive the following error:
{noformat}
groovy.lang.GroovyRuntimeException: Ambiguous method overloading for method geb.report.Base64#decode.
Cannot resolve which method to invoke for [null] due to overlapping prototypes between:

Curious if there is anything related to this issue noted on stacktrace with NULL and method overloading?

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12528823/unexpected-behavior-with-overloaded-methods

It's a (somewhat little-known) oddity of Groovy's multi-dispatch mechanism, which as attempting to invoke the "most appropriate" method, in combination with the fact that the provided static type (in your case A or B) is not used as part of the dispatch mechanism. When you declare A a = null, what you get is not a null reference of type A, but a reference to NullObject.

Ultimately, to safely handle possibly null parameters to overloaded methods, the caller must cast the argument, as in

A a = null
assert foo.foo('foo', a as A) == 'a'

Changing the following line:
From:
decoded = Base64.decode(rawBase64)
To:
decoded = Base64.decode(rawBase64 as String)
...fixes the problem, but I run into another issue where screenshots fail and I get the error, "Unable to receive message from renderer"

Thanks Luke! Besides the problem listed above with the Base64 decoding, there appears to be a limitation with CEF3.1650 and earlier that breaks browser reporting used by GebReportingSpec . This has been addressed is CEF3.1750 and later. Also with CEF3.1750 and later it never hits the "NULL" scenario of determineScreenshotDriver, which appears to only happen if there is a bigger problem. Regardless, it would be great to not to barf at this point. Cheers Lee.
