Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-7582:
---------------------------------------
I should say pseudorandomized with the ability to set the seed for
repeatability. This may be a tall/impossible order. I'm not familiar with
JUnit/Surefire internals sufficient.y
> Unit test execution mode that randomizes test order

> Key: HBASE-7582
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7582
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: test
> Reporter: Andrew Purtell
> Priority: Minor
>
> I've also come around to agreeing with Jon Hseih that we should have a test
> mode that somehow randomizes test order to catch issues where unit test cases
> are written with the assumption of a certain order. It should not be on by
> default but can be enabled when evaluating patches for commit that include
> new tests.
> Case in point is HBASE-7581, which seems to be due to a new test added in
> HBASE-5498. The patch on HBASE-5498 tested out all green in local tests prior
> to commit.
