[weld-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (WELD-1137) PermalinkTest fails due to dependence between test methods

PermalinkTest fails due to dependence between test methods ---------------------------------------------------------- Key: WELD-1137 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WELD-1137 Project: Weld Issue Type: Bug Components: Examples Affects Versions: 1.1.8.Final Environment: JBoss EAP 6.0.0.ER7, Weld 1.1.8.Final, Oracle JDK 1.7.0_02, Solaris 10 x86 Reporter: Ron Šmeral {{PermalinkTest}} fails when executed on Solaris 10, even though it works in other environments. {noformat} java.lang.AssertionError: A name of comment's author expected at org.junit.Assert.fail(Assert.java:91) at org.junit.Assert.assertTrue(Assert.java:43) at org.jboss.weld.examples.permalink.ftest.PermalinkTest.permanentLinkTest(PermalinkTest.java:104) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:57) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) ... {noformat} The test class contains two tests -- {{permanentLinkTest}} and {{addCommentOnTopicTest}}. The {{permanentLinkTest}} fails when it's executed first, because its success is contingent on content generated by {{addCommentOnTopicTest}}. Given that the order of test execution is arbitrary, {{permanentLinkTest}} actually gets executed first sometimes. Thus, correct order of execution should be enforced, for example by annotating the methods with {{(a)org.jboss.arquillian.junit.InSequence}} or by eliminating dependence between test methods.
