Ordering unit tests in Eclipse's JUnit view

Question

The JUnit view in Eclipse seems to order the tests randomly. How can I order them by class name?

it orders them base on execution time, maybe you should sort your methods? source/sort members

mark is right. But you cannot sort your unit test. It's not allowed to speculate about the order of execution.

Unit tests have to be built independently and it's random, how they are called by the UnitRunner.

In most cases, the test methods are sorted alphabetically. The classes are random. Try to use a TestSuite to order your tests.
