Looks close enough to what I tend to do. It could be worth firing off something like the following to double-check that your knowledge base and working memory are as expected prior to each test.


    /**
     * Iterates through the facts currently in working memory, and logs their details.
     * 
     * @param session The session to search for facts.
     */
    public static void printFacts(KieSession session) {
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
        sb.append("\n************************************************************");
        sb.append("\nThe following facts are currently in the system...");
        for (Object fact : session.getObjects()) {
            sb.append("\n\nFact: “ + fact.toString());
        }
        sb.append("\n************************************************************\n");
        log.info(sb.toString());
    }

    

    /**
     * 
     * @return A String detailing the packages and rules in this knowledge base.
     */
    public static String kbaseDetails(KieBase kbase) {
        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
        for (KiePackage p : kbase.getKiePackages()) {
            sb.append("\n  Package : " + p.getName());
            for (Rule r : p.getRules()) {
                sb.append("\n    Rule: " + r.getName());
            }
        }
        return "Knowledge base built with packages: " + sb.toString();
    }

I've written a base class to do the heavy lifting of creating all the Kie
resources etc and to give me a stateless session back that my unit tests can
all use.  Each test calls the method in this base class to set up stuff, and
then adds facts and globals and does a fireall.

however, i get random unit test failures.  sometimes the suite will work
perfectly, sometimes rule x will fail, sometimes rule f will fail etc.  I'm
convinced it's got to be something to do with the way i'm setting up the
initial resources, and maybe they're getting re-used incorrectly from one
test to another (i expect a brand new clean statelesssession on each test)
but i can't see what i'm doing wrong.  The documentation around the new Kie
stuff is still being built around how i'm trying to do stuff, so i'm a bit
lost.  Each unit test class is designed to test all the rules in on .drl
file, but there can be many .drl files in one package so i don't want to use
the api's for loading a package, i am having to create a filesystem and load
the drl file into it.  can anyone see anything obviously wrong in my base
class that might cause this intermittent failure?

thanks
