Hi, thank you, for your awnser.
I have no explicit configuration of the surefire plugin in my pom file. I use the implicit default configuration of the plugin. I am not sure, whats the default value for the "parallel" setting. At the end of each test method I reset the state of the singleton instance to the initial state. So I am able to execute the test methods in each order without failing. But in the case several methods run in parallel, the side effects between the threads may cause the tests to fail. greetings -------- Original-Nachricht -------- > Datum: Sat, 20 Nov 2010 19:55:06 +0100 > Von: Kristian Rosenvold <[email protected]> > An: Maven Users List <[email protected]> > Betreff: Re: parallel execution of unit tests > The way I read your explanation, I am not entirely convinced anything is > being run in parallel; look for the "maven-surefire-plugin" in your pom > and see if the "parallel" setting is active. > > Much more likely you have static state in your tests that fails when > multiple test methods are being run in the same vm invocation.
