Re: [hibernate-dev] JUnit 4.8

Yes alignment should definitely be a goal.  I've spoken with Adam and he is not particularly tied to testng and would be fine switching over to junit if that is the decision. The biggest issue I have with junit is the class instance per test method. It makes setup and teardown code fugly because everything needs to be done statically.  I have actually prototypes using junit4 long time ago and asked y'all to take a look ;)  It is in the sourceforge got repo.  It does leverage rules and other junit4 newness.  Still was not overly happy with it mainly due again to its instantiation policies. I have tried testng in the past and was not overly happy there either.  If I remember correctly the issue there was an inability to alter test outcome (altering failures to success due to @FailureExpected e.g.).
