----------------------------------------

             Summary: Non thread-safe tests could lead to errors while running them
                 Key: DIRAPI-317
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRAPI-317
             Project: Directory Client API
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0.AM1
            Reporter: Emmanuel Lecharny
             Fix For: 2.0.0


From time to time, we might get a test failure, like teh one reported on Jenkins :

{noformat}
java.lang.NullPointerException
	at org.apache.directory.api.ldap.model.name.MultiThreadedTest.testNormalizeEquals(MultiThreadedTest.java:116)
{noformat}

This is due to the fact that we are modifying a static variable (the irony ;-) :

{code:java}
public class MultiThreadedTest
{
    @Rule
    public MultiThreadedMultiInvoker i = new MultiThreadedMultiInvoker( 100, 1000 );

    private static Dn sharedDn;
    ...
    @BeforeClass
    public static void setup() throws Exception
    {
        schemaManager = new DefaultSchemaManager();

        referenceDn = new Dn( schemaManager, "dc=example,dc=com" );
        sharedDn = new Dn( schemaManager, "dc=example,dc=com" );
    ...
    }
    ...
    @Test
    public void testNormalizeHashCode() throws Exception
    {
        assertEquals( referenceAva.hashCode(), sharedAva.hashCode() );

        sharedRdn = new Rdn( schemaManager, sharedRdn );
        assertEquals( referenceRdn.hashCode(), sharedRdn.hashCode() );

        sharedDn = new Dn( schemaManager, sharedDn );  <------- This is *very* wrong
        assertEquals( referenceDn.hashCode(), sharedDn.hashCode() );
    }
    ...
{code}

Many of the tests are updating the {{sharedDn}} - and some of the other static declarations -, which may lead to invalid tests, as all the tests are ran concurrently.

This has to be fixed.
