[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ARQ-1012?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.s... ] Marc Wirth commented on ARQ-1012: --------------------------------- Long time, but we ran into a similar issue last week. It looked like an Assume.assumeTrue(false) cause the test to fail. Digging a bit into the source code I think the problem is that the Arquillian runner (from v1.0.3) overwrites {{public void run(final RunNotifier notifier)}} but doesn't handle AssumptionViolatedException in a special way while JUnit's ParentRunner (v4.8.1) catches that and just ignores the tests: {code} try { Statement statement= classBlock(notifier); statement.evaluate(); } catch (AssumptionViolatedException e) { testNotifier.fireTestIgnored(); } {code} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
