[bv-dev] Questions on TCK SequenceResolutionTest

Hi all, I'm having trouble recognizing what about TestEntity is supposed to trigger the GroupDefinitionException in #testInvalidDefinitionOfDefaultSequenceInEntity() (for convenience, TestEntity is at [1]). The name of the test case suggests that the problem would be on TestEntity's own @GroupSequence, which aside from the order of the specified groups looks more or less like example 5.11 near [2]. This suggests that the test case is imperfectly named (the name also seems misaligned with the accompanying @SpecAssertions) and the focus intends to be on the Complete group of which validation is attempted as the last activity of the test. Complete again looks topographically identical to example 5.10 in the previous section of the specification, which suggests that there is nothing inherently wrong with it. I can appreciate that, when taking TestEntity's redefinition of Default into account, Complete's sequence evaluates to [ TimeConsumingChecks, TestEntity, TimeConsumingChecks]. This is clearly repetitive/redundant, but is it really to be considered cyclical? Is there any danger of infinite recursion and, if so, how? Is there some other problem I have missed here?
