Max Rydahl Andersen commented on JBIDE-11714:
---------------------------------------------

okey - so yeah, swtbot.properties is really a bad match here since it seems that file is intended to be manually tweaked between runs instead of being a stable file with multiple runtimes defined.

Anyway, the system properties approach is what all the non-swtbot tests uses and these things really shouldn't be this different.
Something to look at for 3.4.x to fix.

About sharing/non-sharing then this new approach will require much more diskspace if you are running all tests, but in some cases you actually do want a clean server per run.
What actually happens if the files already exist in the target folder ? does it skip the unzip or will that happen everytime ?

and can I still run these tests with mvn -o (offline) and avoid downloading and unzipping *all* testing requirements at every run ?

> Currently, jobs depdend on the requirement folder to perform tests (requirement contains scripts aimed to retrieving runtimes for tests). Instead, we should think about creating a Maven Mojo or something more convenient so that test pom.xml could directly contain their setup.
