> The heavy use of static state information in the existing Derby (non-Junit) harness was a major mistake, it should not be repeated in the Junit model.
> It should be changed before too many tests are written.
> A static configuration will limit the ability for the tests to be flexible and have different instances running with different configurations,
> a instance based scheme will be more flexible.
> This change will just change the api, the current implementation of a single static configuration will remain but be hidden within the base-classes.
