Checkstyle is configured so that static imports are before non-static imports of the same group. That is "above" setting in http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/property_types.html#importOrder E.g., import java.util.Map; import java.util.Set; import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals; import static org.junit.Assert.assertFalse; import static org.junit.Assert.assertTrue; import org.junit.Test; Default configuration for "Organize imports" command (Ctrl+Shift+O) in Eclipse IDE is to place all static imports before others (that would be "top" in checkstyle). To change it to match our checkstyle settings, in Workspace Preferences go to Java > Code Style > Organize Imports, press "New Static..." button, enter "org", OK. Then move new "S org" import group above the "org" one. Note, that the full list of groups in our checkstyle configuration res/checkstyle/checkstyle.xml is: <property name="groups" value="java,javax,async,jsp2,junit,org,util"/> 2011/7/23 Christoph Pater <christ...@pater.name>: > I like that idea. > I'm new to tomcat sources but maybe I can volunteer here? Chris, you are welcome. BTW, the classes in org.apache.catalina.tribes.* are near the end of my priorities list for this task. Some of them (e.g. tribes.test.transport.*) do not use JUnit at all, but have main() methods that do some testing. They are excluded from batchtest configuration in our build.xml.
