Hi Lee, We're on 1.1.4.2 and still having this problem. We had the same problem with 0.6 as well.
We have tried parent test cases as well, but if we try to put all common code into parent test cases, we'll probably end up with some massive parents (or duplicating code into multiple parents). Can you replicate this issue on your end? Should I file a JIRA for it?
