Couple of things (and I know you've been around for a while, so pardon me if it's all old hat to you):
1> if you run the entire "reproduce with" line and can get a consistent failure, then you are half way there, nothing is as frustrating as not getting failures reliably. The critical bit is often the -Dtests.seed. As Michael mentioned, there are various randomizations done for _many_ things in Lucene tests using a random generator. tests.seed, well, seeds that generator so it produces the same numbers every time it's run with that seed. You'll see lots of calls to a static ramdom() method calls. I'll add that if you want to use randomness in your tests, use that method and do _not_ use a local instance of Java's Random. 2> MIke: You say IntelliJ succeeds. But that'll use a new random() seed. Once you run a test, in the upper right (on my version at least), IntelliJ will show you a little box with the test name and you can "edit configurations" on it. I often have luck by editing the configuration and adding the test seed to the "VM option" box for the test, just the "-Dtests.seed=35AF58F652536895" part. You can add all of the -D flags in the "reproduce with" line if you want, but often just the seed works for me. If that works and you track it down, do remember to take that seed _out_ of the "VM options" box rather than forget it as I have done ;) 3> Mark Miller's beasting script can be used to run a zillion tests over night: https://gist.github.com/markrmiller/dbdb792216dc98b018ad 4> If MIke's intuition that it's one of the file system randomizations that occasionally gets hit _and_ you determine that that's an invalid test case (and for Luke requiring that the FS-basesd tests are all that are necessary may be fine) I'm pretty sure you you can disable that randomization for your specific tests.
