    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ARQ-474?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12612238#comment-12612238 ] 

Ondrej Zizka commented on ARQ-474:
----------------------------------

+1 on @InOrder, only I'd call it @TestOrder.

Reasoning:
1) I'd prefer to cope with numbers than copying method names, which, as you noted, may change.
2) Also, adding @TestOrder(1) might be easier to support in IDEs - you just add annotate all test methods with increasing number, instead of adding depends on
3) Using @DependsOn for ordering would be a bit misusing of it...

> Currently there exists annotation for deployment ordering but there does not exist a way to control the order in which one wants to run the test. TestNG does have ordering via depends method but JUnit does not. Usually, it's recommended to not have a dependency of test order but in case of clustering and data grid testing where you want to verify replication, it makes sense to have that.
> Please add a fix version which makes a sense based on the roadmap you have.
