Jan Goyvaerts commented on SUREFIRE-832:
----------------------------------------
There seems to be some kind of performance/stability/threading problem for the
JUnit 47 provider also. The tests fly if no provider is mentioned. But then the
category selection does not work any more.
The most visible effect is that logging seems to stop. But that's because it's
being buffered and released when all the tests have run. For long running tests
there seems to be an important slowdown. If I would have to guess I'd say
there's a synchronization/locking problem somewhere.

> If no explicit JUnit 4.7 provider is stipulated, all tests will be run.
> Regardless of their @Category annotations. This is contrary to what's

> supporting categories, you can't use the @Category annotation either).
