Markus Spann updated SUREFIRE-2082:
-----------------------------------
Description:
Test sets with a very large number of tests (such as a JUnit
{{ParameterizedTest}} with a large number of test inputs) cause surefire to
open a file for _stdout_ and another file for _stderr_ as soon as a test method
prints to either of these output streams.
Surefire captures _stdout_ and _stderr_ in temporary files.
These file handles are kept until the very end of the test set
({{{}TestSetRunListener.testSetCompleted{}}}) which may cause the limit of open
files to be reached on a system, resulting in test errors
({{{}java.nio.file.FileSystemException{}}}, too many open files).
This behavior may have been introduced with the performance improvements of
SUREFIRE-1845.
To reproduce, set the maximum allowed open files to a value lower than test
iterations in a test class:
{{ulimit -n <limit>}}
where {{limit}} is the maximum number of open files for a user (Linux).
