Test Execution

  • Rely on the 'abstract' modifier to identify abstract test classes rather than using a naming convention.This means that test classes named **/Abstract*Test.class or **/Abstract*TestCase.class are no longer generally excluded from the test execution, but only if they are marked as 'abstract' (see bug 389509).
  • More reliably terminate forked test processes (bug 427556). Before being fixed, this bug could have caused orphaned test execution JVM processes to live on forever, consuming resources and accumulating system load.
