Gilles commented on MATH-423:
-----------------------------

"@Retry" annotation committed in revision 1086539.

The failure in "CMAESoptimizer" still occurs now and then. To my knowledge, 
there hasn't been any change to eliminate this behaviour.
This might be a case where the "retry" functionality is interesting; since the 
randomization is an integral part of the algorithm, I'd think that, in the 
test, it is better to let it behave as intended rather than use a fixed seed. 
[Maybe we should find some way so that the Junit report indicates how many 
retries were necessary to pass the test.]
Of course, as Phil had remarked, we should make sure that the intermittent 
failure isn't caused by a bug.


> Upgrade all test code to Junit 4
