[jira] [Updated] (SUREFIRE-2082) Huge test sets may open too many files

["Markus Spann (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-2082?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Markus Spann updated SUREFIRE-2082:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
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 X{}}}, where X is the maximum number of open files).
