Hi Melvyn,

I've been working on getting permission to post the code, but everybody who 
can do that is on vacation at present, unfortunately. I'm hoping somebody 
will be back to work on Monday. I did try the test --parallel 1, but that 
didn't help.

The problem tests all cover a particular method, and only the first test to 
run ever passes. Today I wrote a reset method to call at the beginning of 
each test, and *that* tests out just fine... by itself. I tested it by 
first calling the other method that seems to be causing issues, then 
calling the reset method and asserting that all of the records did indeed 
reset. But when called as a suite, that test fails, too.

I suppose for now I can skip some of the data in setUpTestData and just 
create brand new records for each test.

Thank you!
Heather
