Don't believe it's a known issue. Could be a bug in either junit4 or Ant - junit4 is supposed to know about suite(), I guess.

-J.


The test works fine with Ant 1.6.5 and the gump build of junit4. The junit-dev team was not aware of the problem and did not have any changes at the time of the failure that seemed to be related to the issue. Points strongly at something in the Ant changes around 10- Mar-2006, though I did not investigate further since it seemed to be a known issue to Bill Barker.

Also, ant-contrib-tests started to fail its unit tests on 10-Mar-2006 (with no CVS activity for months), however unlike the log4j failure, it could not be cleaned up by reverting to junit 3.8.1.

There are a lot of other Gump failures that started roughly the same time (currently 31 failures on http://vmgump.apache.org/gump/public/ project_todos.html), but with a lot of different failure scenarios. A few of them (for example, http://vmgump.apache.org/gump/public/xml- fop/xml-fop/gump_work/build_xml-fop_xml-fop.html) appear to be due to a chance in the encoding expectation for Java source files. That would point at some change in Gump or Ant at the time unrelated to junit.
