Just committed JUnit upgrade to version 4.11 from the ancient 3.8.1. Was pleasantly surprised that it is fully backwards compatible, so we don’t need to rewrite all our existing tests to use annotations. I had to do some non-test file renaming though, so that surefire-plugin does not attempt to run them as tests.
So for now it is business as usual, but we have the ability to use all the new features in JUnit 4, and eventually clean up our cross-DB test hacks. Andrus
