Short answer: 

   Please use Java 6 for building and running Apache Stanbol

Complete Answer:

This is because the current Sling launchpad version used by Apache Stanbol does 
not support Java 7 (see STANBOL-608)

There are currently also two further issues that can case builds to fail 
(depending on the JDK version you use)

1. STANBOL-659: Adapt unit tests to work with Java7u6-b12+
2. https://github.com/KentBeck/junit/issues/429: Junit test method sorting issue

I am currently working on STANBOL-608 and STANBOL-659 and I hope to finish this 
by tomorrow.

For (2) there are two options:

a) change the unit tests so that the execution order does not matter
b) wait for the next junit release (4.11)
