----------------------------------------
Summary: PageViewPluginTest is failing very often when using a JDK
7
Key: JSPWIKI-750
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JSPWIKI-750
Project: JSPWiki
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Servlet Container/Java compatibility
Affects Versions: 2.8.4, 2.9
Environment: Oracle JDK 7
Reporter: Florian Holeczek
Assignee: Florian Holeczek
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 2.9.1
The PageViewPluginTest tests will fail if they aren't executed in the same
order like they appear in the source file.
JUnit never gave any grants in terms of execution ordering. Quite the contrary,
relying on execution ordering is considered to be bad practice [1].
However, up to JDK 6, it seemed to always be the same ordering like in the
source code, so the tests were thought to be stable and deterministic. JDK 7
now changed this situation [2].
Thanks to Glen Mazza for reporting this [3]!
