I tried looking at how I would contribute a fix, but I lacked an understanding on how tests are performed in surefire.
Also: would you accept a test that's using check-leak to prevent future leaks like this? (maybe a separate sub-module for this test?)... and where I would add such test? I would even dedicate my personal time into proposing a fix if I can get some basic understanding about this. Is there a chat channel I can ask questions about the codebase? or the user's or dev's list is a good place to start?
