RANT_1
This if freaking dumb... there's absolutely no way to carry test class/ test name separately from the display name, so we can't easily include seed info on the test case. If we do, Eclipse complains it cannot find the target class/ test name. If we don't, Eclipse's JUnit runner gets confused and doesn't show test case execution properly. We can't even use a proxy or a subclass because Description has a private constructor. Eh. Having a Description properly indicate the test case/ class is useful because we could re-run a concrete repetition of a given test from the UI. Currently this is impossible - we can re-run the entire iteration sequence only (or fix the seed on the method, but this requires changes to the code). -

RANT_4
JUnit is inconsistent in how it treats annotations on methods. Some of them are "inherited" and some require presence on the exact sameMethod
as the one used for testing. This has awkward side effects, for exampleIgnore
andTest
must co-exist on the same method, not on virtual method hierarchy. You cannot makeTest
methods protected and publish them in subclasses. Shadowing ofBeforeClass
methods is inconsistent (non-annotated shadowed method will not be called, shadowed method annotated withBeforeClass
prevents the shadowed method from being called), etc.
