However, that said, we are still left with a bunch of test classes that
do not inherit from AbstractCacheTest :(
So yes, I'll see how to hookup UnitTestTestNGListener :)
Hard to believe but there is no way to do this through listener. After I
could not find a way to do it I even posted a question on testng-users
and got a recommendation from Cedric to nullify all instances from a
@AfterClass method in superclass.
I also found that I was wrong regarding invocation of @AfterClass
methods:) As long as you do not override @AfterClass method it *will* be
invoked starting from the leaf all the way up through ancestors. I
created a superclass called AbstractInfinispanTest with
nullifyInstanceFields method and made AbstractInfinispanTest superclass
of all test classes. Works as a charm and guranteed no more leaks!
Let me know if you have any reservations to this change.
