Hi,

Can anyone explain the following?

I am running my test cases by starting an application server in <parallel> with a <sequential> set of tasks to wait for the server, run the tests, and shutdown the server. (There are snippets of the relevant Ant targets at the end of the mail).

Before starting the server, I <copy> the jcoverage.ser file to the appserver directory; after it has shutdown, I <copy> it back to my working directory.

Intermittently, I find that the last <copy> back to the working directory is not always executed - there is no [copy] in the console when this happens. Consequently all my reports go awry. Of course, this never happens when I run ant -debug ...

Environment is Win 2000, Ant 1.5.3, JBoss 3.2.1.

Thanks for any help,
Keith
