Hi Mukul,
Thanks for checking out Isis.
Ah, dates ... don't you just love them! I'm afraid you are suffering from
the fact that the main authors of Isis are based in the UK, and so we
sometimes miss these things. Great thing about Apache is we get interest
world-wide, so it helps flush out these bugs.
~~~
The simplest short-term fix for this defect might be to use
assumeThat(...), so that the test is skipped if your timezone is not BST.
Something like (in pseudo code):
assumeThat(TimeZone.currentTimeZone().getName(), is("GMT"));
Please raise a JIRA ticket to have this fixed, and - if you have the time -
attach the assumeThat(...) workaround as a patch so we could apply it.
Thx
Dan
