Java called groovy script (with evaluate) and return error

Question

I spent a lot time finding an answer. I found something like the solution here, but it was wrong. This doesn't work for me.
Situation:
I have 2 groovy scripts and java app.
Another.groovy (autotest/sources)

class Another
{
    protected String name="";
    public Another() {}
    public main(String[] args) {}
    public boolean getResult() {return true;}
    public String getName() {return name;}
    public void setName(String value) {name=value;}
}

test.groovy (autotest/cases)

evaluate(new File("autotest/sources/Another.groovy"))
import support.tool.AutotestResult;
public class Another2 extends Another
{
    public Another2()
    {
        this.setName(this.name+"N");
    }
    public AutotestResult run()
    {
        return new AutotestResult(this.name+"123",this.getResult(),null,null)
    }
}
Another2 a = new Another2()
a.run()

Java class called "test.groovy"

String[] paths = {"autotest\\cases\\test.groovy"};
GroovyScriptEngine gse = new GroovyScriptEngine(paths);
Binding binding = new Binding();
binding.setVariable("args",null);
System.out.println(((AutotestResult)gse.run("test.groovy", binding)).toJSON());

It works perfectly if Another.groovy and test.groovy are in the same folder. But if Another.groovy is in another folder it does not work. Java returned error:

Exception in thread "main" org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed:
file:/.../autotest/cases/test.groovy: 6: unable to resolve class Another 
 @ line 6, column 1.
   public class Another2 extends Another
   ^

So I have questions:

Can some help with advice?
Is it possible do (Class from one script extends class from another script which somewhere)?
Is there another way may be?

PS. Sorry for the bad English.

Problem resolved with import
Solution:

Change GroovyScriptEngine class to GroovyShell class
Using CompilerConfiguration class and setClassPath("root folder")
Add package and import to scripts

Another.groovy (autotest/sources)

package sources
public class Another
{
    protected String name="AnotherNama";
    public Another() {}
    public main(String[] args) {}
    public boolean getResult() {return true;}
    public String getName() {return name;}
    public void setName(String value) {name=value;}
}

test.groovy (autotest/cases)

package cases

import support.tool.AutotestResult;
import sources.Another

public class Another2 extends Another
{
    public Another2()
    {
        this.setName(this.name+"N");
    }
    public AutotestResult run()
    {
        return new AutotestResult(this.name+"123",this.getResult(),null,null)
    }
}
Another2 a = new Another2()
a.run()

Java code:

CompilerConfiguration config=new CompilerConfiguration();
config.setClasspath("autotest");
config.addCompilationCustomizers(new ImportCustomizer());
GroovyShell shell=new GroovyShell(config);
Binding binding = new Binding();
binding.setVariable("args",null);
System.out.println(((AutotestResult)shell.run(new File("autotest/cases/test.groovy"),new ArrayList())).toJSON());
