>             Project: Maven Surefire
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Maven Surefire Plugin
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.0-M6
>            Reporter: Markus Spann
>            Assignee: Tibor Digana
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: patch, performance, pull-request-available
>             Fix For: 3.0.0-M8

> Test sets with a very large number of tests (such as a JUnit {{ParameterizedTest}} with a large number of test inputs) cause surefire to open a file for _stdout_ and another file for _stderr_ as soon as a test method prints to either of these output streams.
> Surefire captures _stdout_ and _stderr_ in temporary files.
> These file handles are kept until the very end of the test set ({{{}TestSetRunListener.testSetCompleted{}}}) which may cause the limit of open files to be reached on a system, resulting in test errors ({{{}java.nio.file.FileSystemException{}}}, too many open files).
> This behavior may have been introduced with the performance improvements of SUREFIRE-1845.
> To reproduce, set the maximum allowed open files to a value lower than test iterations in a test class:
> {{ulimit -n <limit>}}
> where {{limit}} is the maximum number of open files for a user (Linux).
