Ah yes, there were a bunch of tests whose setUp() methods had a
lowercase 'u' in them. I fixed a bunch, but obviously missed this one.

Well, there's setUp() and tearDown() for creating a new broker for
every testcase, and VMBrokerSetup for setting up a broker once for
all of a class's testcases. I agree we don't want to be trying to go
any more coarse-grained than that, and trying to share brokers across
unit tests, due to the cleanup issues.

BTW, the client basic ReceiveTest looks like it could use the
VMBrokerSetup, but it's a got a main() in it that makes it look like
somebody might be using it for other purposes as well, so I left it
alone. If that's not the case, let me know, and I'll fix it too.

I think a lot of the tests were originally written as applications and
then had junit functionality added later. You'll not a lot of the
"tests" don't use asserts they just throw exceptions if something went
wrong.

It would be good to fix up as many of the test classes as we sensibly
can to be in the unit test directory.. with the goal of eventually
sorting all the test classes to the unit directory or the system test.
Then we can restore the more normal test package hierarchy.

Must be time for me to go... realised my comment on QPID-123 was total
rubbish... that was the python tests not the java ones!
