I have the feeling that it is on intend in order to make sure that the 
@BeforeClass method writes only in static fields. Given that JUnit creates a 
new 
instance of the test class for every test methods (last time I checked - maybe 
TestNG does not), then if we want to have non-static fields initialized we 
would 
need to run the initialization method before every tests, which is exactly what 
we wish to avoid with @BeforeClass...

I have not looked to the test so I may be telling a inaplicable proposal... But 
is there anything preventing to have a @BeforeClass method initializing some 
static fields, and a @Before method copying the values from the static fields 
to 
non-static fields?
