Github user srdo commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/storm/pull/2789 I've added calls to report to the branch, the tests are running at https://travis-ci.org/srdo/storm/builds/413332618. Unless the test specifies another configuration file, I would expect us to be using https://github.com/apache/storm/blob/master/conf/defaults.yaml. I also don't understand why heartbeatTimer would still be running in AsyncLocalizerTest. JUnit doesn't shut down the JVM between tests, so it would make sense that a thread could leak from another test into AsyncLocalizerTest, but it would require someone opening a Supervisor in a test somewhere and forgetting to close it. Happy to help out.
