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

             Summary: Remove extra-tests module
                 Key: ARTEMIS-3969
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARTEMIS-3969
             Project: ActiveMQ Artemis
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Clebert Suconic
             Fix For: 2.26.0


The extra-tests have grown unused up to the point they are rotten... I don't think anyone really cares or run them.


I tried running them, and it was up to a point that would be a major task to clean them up and make them operational.. for the point that no one was really paying attention to them.


So, I am removing them... and if anyone cares enough to keep them their history will be on git log for eventual recovery if it gets to that point.


The Byteman tests are fragile.. even though they are eventually useful to figure out things, their interceptors are text based and any minor refactoring would make them useless.

We should be doing more soak-tests and brute force tests... or if we really need introduced failures we should rather play with our own interceptors or inheritance as we do in a few places.. (at least compilation time would flag any refactoring or need to fix them).
