Why can't Groovy find my file? - groovy

Question

I wrote a script in groovy to find files java test files recursively in a given directory with certain names, the concerned part of the code is:
def projectRootDirectory = args.length ? new File(args[0]) : new File(System.getProperty("user.dir"))
def srcFilesCount = 0, testFilesCount = 0, srcLinesCount=0, testLinesCount=0
def srcFileSubstringPattern = '.java'
def testFileSubstringPattern = 'Test.java'
projectRootDirectory.eachDirRecurse() { dir ->
dir.eachFile {
if (it.name.endsWith(testFileSubstringPattern) || it.name ==~ /Test.*java/ ||
it.name.endsWith('Tests.java') || it.name.endsWith('TestCase.java')) {
//println "Test file found: " + it.name
testFilesCount++
it.eachLine { testLinesCount++ }
} else if (it.name.contains(srcFileSubstringPattern)) {
srcFilesCount++
it.eachLine { srcLinesCount++ }
}
}
}
It finds already existing files in the repo which was cloned using SVN that match for example someTestCase.java, but when I created some new ones by using the command touch dummyTestCase.java via Cygwin in Windows 7 or via the Windows 7 explorer right click -> New -> Text Document option and rename it to something like TestDummy.java, it doesn't find them. The script also treats copies of the respective files the same way i.e. it finds copies of old files that already existed but not the new ones I create. I even opened up file permissions to fullest on the newly created files, but no change. Whereas the BASH find command via Cygwin always finds all the files without any issue. I have confirmed using diagnostic print statements the the script is looking in the correct directory. I even confirmed this by having the script create some files there and confirmed they got created in the correct place.

Wow, the answer turned out to be amazingly simple. I replaced eachDirRecurse with eachFileRecurse thus also eliminating the nested loop. Thanks a ton to all the comment authors whose help led me to this discovery.
