maven-failsafe-plugin 2.12 incorrectly passes my test suite

[Christian Schlichtherle <ch...@schlichtherle.de>]

Hi everyone,

 

I recently added maven-failsafe-plugin version 2.11 to my build. When
running the integration tests in parallel it correctly reports test failures
- I know there are some multithreading issues in my code. Now I have changed
to version 2.12 and all of a sudden my test suite passes without failures.
When changing back to version 2.11 I get the test failures again as before.

 

So I wonder if there have been changes to the class loading between 2.11 and
2.12? I suspect that a separate class instance is used for each test with
2.12. This would explain why it passes the test suite all of a sudden.

 

Looking up the plugin site and JIRA change log has revealed no evidence of
this, however.

 

Regards,
