Jepp - true. One thing though: I never managed to convince my IDE to
not run tests named *ITest* when right-clicking on the package or
folder containing the tests. (And yes, I have to admit that I also
like some other features the random testing component provides - e.g.
tracking leaking threads, executing tests out of order etc. and needed
an excuse to play with them during my holiday.)

I haven't looked too deeply into what our tests do - the ones I did
mark @Nightly mostly looked like integration tests that check the
whole workflow instead of the individual units. Which does not mean
that using MRUnit for some of our tests might not actually speed
things up.
