Tibor Digana commented on SUREFIRE-749: --------------------------------------- @Gili My wish is to have got a stable maven-surefire 2.x right before 3.x. >From my PoV the isolation API in 3.x. I don't have any objections if you would like to work with developers on GitHub long enough getting consensus on API design including the tests. Sorry. > Parallel methods should run in separate classloaders > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SUREFIRE-749 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-749 > Project: Maven Surefire > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Junit 4.7+ (parallel) support > Affects Versions: 2.8.1 > Reporter: Gili > Assignee: Kristian Rosenvold > > When running in parallel-method or parallel-both mode, each @Test should run > in its own ClassLoader. I'm running into a lot of problems involving the use > of static variables in 3rd-party libraries. Here are two examples: > 1. slf4j: http://bugzilla.slf4j.org/show_bug.cgi?id=176 > 2. guice: http://code.google.com/p/google-guice/issues/detail?id=635 > I believe running in isolated ClassLoaders would fix both problems and it > makes a lot of sense from a test isolation point of view so we should do it > anyway. > I believe Surefire's forkMode is defined in terms of isolated JVMs instead of > ClassLoaders. Furthermore, it only seems to support per-Class isolation > instead of per-@Test isolation. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.6#6162)
