In addition to Mikael's suggestion you can also use the x~y syntax, which i
personally find less confusing, and is effectively `m/x/ && !m/y/` in Perl:

  **/*.groovy~*/(test|target)/*
  # or you can chain multiple y patterns
  **/*.groovy~*/test/*~*/target/*

(Note that, like zshexpn(1) says, / and . are not special in the y pattern)

Use (-.) if you also want to match symlinks to files (which is common)
