Seam tests fail from time to time.

If they can't pass consistently every time, then they need to be:

a) rewritten,
b) refactored,
c) repaired, or if all else fails..
d) removed.

A test that fails intermittently is no more proof of quality than the absence of that test.

These failures is not a problem of tests. Seam tools model seems to not work properly and the tests reproduce a bug of Seam tools.

Unfortunately we have not found the reason of this issue yet.
And btw Seam tests should be rewritten anyway. Just to be more friendly for debugging. See https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBIDE-4495
