Of course, one can use if / else too

In this example, just logging different things to demonstrate. One can write different statements instead as needed in each case i.e., true or false.

def favouriteToy = 'car' 
def toyBox = ['car', 'bat', 'helicopter', 'bike', 'tractor', 'truck', 'train'] 
toyBox.contains(favouriteToy) ? log.info("Toy box has favourite toy") : log.info("Toy box does not have ${favouriteToy}")
