ASF GitHub Bot commented on SUREFIRE-1239: ------------------------------------------ Github user jsdima commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/maven-surefire/pull/137 @Tibor17 >I am interested in this problem because as you said the plugin hangs. Why the plugin hanged, do you have explanation? It depends on a size of `private final BlockingQueue<String> items` in `ThreadedStreamConsumer` at the moment when Exception happens and amount of tests output . Surefire plugin has 3 important threads when running tests in separate process: - `StreamPumper` thread which reads input from child process and put them to `items`, it finishes when there is no more input from child process - `ThreadedStreamConsumer.Pumper`thread which takes line from `items` and call `ForkClient`to process it - `Main` thread which awaits when `StreamPumper` finishes so when exception happens `ThreadedStreamConsumer.Pumper`thread ends, but `StreamPumper` still reads input and put in into `items`, but when size of `items` becomes bigger than `ITEM_LIMIT_BEFORE_SLEEP`, this thread starts sleep every iteration: ```java if ( items.size() > ITEM_LIMIT_BEFORE_SLEEP ) { try { Thread.sleep( 100 ); } catch ( InterruptedException ignore ) { } } ``` > Did you run the build with your patch? It means mvn -P run-its install. Yes.
