Junit 3.8.1?

[Peter Donald <pe...@apache.org>]

Hi,

Anyone else mind if I upgrade to JUnit 3.8.1. It adds a few more convenience 
methods for assertions and dos away with annoying pass through constructors 
ala

    public AssemblerTestCase( final String name )
    {
        super( name );
    }

I have been using it in other stuff and it seems all good.

The only problem that I've run into is a classloader related one.  JUnit
3.8.1 sets the ContextClassLoader to be a ClassLoader that is a direct
descendant of the System ClassLoader.  In J2EE environments where the
ContextClassLoader is already set, this is disasterous.  For *most*
of the things we test, it doesn't really affect us.
