slow?
Has anyone ever noticed Ant running junit tests
exceedingly slowly, perhaps only in the case of
testsuites or nested testsuites? I am looking at a
testsuite that has about 600 child tests, which all
run in < 2 seconds in Eclipse's JUnit runner, but take
15-20 minutes in Ant. :|

3.8.2. I might try it with 3.8.1 tomorrow just for
kicks... ;)
Thanks,

I have noticed the same thing. Which version of Junit are you using?

Daniel: Unfortunately, I never use forkmode="each"
since Stefan added "once" as an option. I see the
slowness when forking once as well as when not

Just to make sure you don't fall in the same trap as me:
Eclipse uses a "one jvm instance for all tests" approach. Thats as fast
as one can get.
If you run your tests on a network drive with the ant junit task, it
will severely slow down the execution. I guess these are caching effects
on eclipse's side.
The next thing to look for is the "forkmode" attribute of ant's junit
task. It defaults to "one jvm per test class" (perTest). That creates
additional overhead for every testclass you use. Using Testsuites
indicates many test classes, so i suggest you check that neither the
junit task nor the batchtest tasks (if any) have the default forkmode set.

I hope that helped. This issue bugged me for a while, i think the
default value for forkmode is broken - if you watch it from an
"eclipsed" point of view.
Sincerely,
Daniel
