: apparently, it fails also with @SuppressCodecs("Lucene3x") what exactly is the test failure message?
When you run tests that use the lucene test framework, any failure should include information about the random seed used to run the test -- that random seed affects things like the codec used, the directoryfactory used, etc... Can you confirm wether the test reliably passes/fails consistently when you reuse the same seed? Can you elaborate more on what exactly your test does? ... we probably need to see the entire test to make sense of why you might get inconsistent failures. -Hoss
