Chad Wilson commented on SUREFIRE-704: -------------------------------------- It's possible that this is spurious (and it certainly seems bizarre) but we started getting failures with one of our tests after we added a relatively simple @Setup to the test. Even more strangely, re-ordering the @Tests in the file so that the two tests (of 4) that were logging an exception stacktrace via log4j weren't last in the file seemed to fix it as well. The mind boggles. We have the same Maven setup as S Daigle. > maven surefire Error while executing forked tests.; nested exception is > java.lang.IllegalStateException: testSetStarting called twice > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SUREFIRE-704 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-704 > Project: Maven Surefire > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Junit 4.x support > Affects Versions: 2.7.2 > Environment: Windows/Linux/SunOS > Reporter: S Daigle > Attachments: surefire-272.txt, surefire.txt > > > We want to upgrade from our current 2.5 version of the maven-surefire-plugin > to something newer but cannot get past the error below.
