[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Updated: (JBRULES-2548) ExecutionFlowControlTest#testRuleFlowGroupInActiveMode() has timing issues

ExecutionFlowControlTest#testRuleFlowGroupInActiveMode() has timing issues -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBRULES-2548 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/JBRULES-2548 Project: Drools Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: drools-core (flow) Affects Versions: 5.0.1.FINAL Environment: Various linux machines of different loads, cpu speeds, and memory sizes. Reporter: Andreas Kohn Assignee: Mark Proctor Attachments: jbrules-2548.diff The ExecutionFlowControlTest#testRuleFlowGroupInActive() uses a thread to constantly fire rules, and then verifies in the unit test that at most 1s *wall clock time* after the rule flow group was activated the rule has fired. This "1s" dependency is really wrong here: nothing in the rule specifies that, and if the machine is loaded it may be that the scheduling of a thread takes longer than that 1s. Attached patch removes the thread, and instead explicitly uses WorkingMemory#fireAllRules() to test the activation of the group. (Rationale: this test tends to fail quite often in our autobuild/CI environment)
