Weird problem using JUnit in multi-thread environment

Question

I meet a weired problem when using JUnit in multi-thread environment. The following code should fail, but it actually pass in eclipse.

public class ExampleT         


        

Answer 1

There is also the interesting fact that Eclipse and IDEA can spawn a VM in their junit test runners and end up calling system.exit() on it. This means if you don't wait properly in the test (as in the case when you sleep above and hope the the task has completed), it can exit unexpectedly. Interesting, but not exactly what you were asking!
