I'm doing a bunch of tests for my code that uses Cassandra. I have 2 test classes, each of them sets up a thrift.CassandraDaemon in @BeforeClass and activate it in @AfterClass
when I ran them separately , they both work fine; if I run them together by "mvn test", the latter one fails. it turns out that after "deactivate()" , the static caches for implementing singleton in Table is not cleared, so they are re-used. there could be more cases like this. so to get that working, you need to set the "forkMode" of surefire-plugin to let each test class be run in a separate JVM yang
