I don't think it's a good idea as the tests won't be atomic.
As a Maven test user, I expect that each @Test is completely isolated
from another and can not be polluted by another one.
If two @Test methods should share resources, it's the purpose of @Before
(executed before each @Test) and use a dedicated annotation.

How about doing the same as for a karaf instance. We could share system
and lib for all tests. That should make the space needed for each
instance much smaller.

Maybe introducing an annotation (@Inject or so) on the method to reuse
an existing bootstrap dir could be interesting.

I now got the itests running. The key is to delete the target dir before
the test.
After I ran one test class the target dir had 80 MB. I think the reason
why it now worked is that windows can cope with this size.
Still I think it does not make sense that we create a complete karaf dir
for each test method and then even keep the data after the test.
Can´t we optimize this in some way?

I saw some failures in the itests on trunk when running from maven. So
I tried to import the project into eclipse and run the tests from
there to debug into them.
The problem is that the tests do not even seem to fully start on
eclipse. They seem to hang inside:
org.ops4j.pax.exam.spi.intern.TestProbeBuilderImpl.selectCollector(File)
I then found that the itests/target dir is about 2GB big. As far as I
could debug it seems that the tests do not fully hang and instead seem
to go through each of those many files and so never seem to start.
So the questions are:
Does anyone alse see this behaviour?
Can we change this so the tests take less file space? On windows it
takes even several minutes to just delete the target dir after the
tests.
