Hi

while unit testing my project, I encountered an out of memory problem. More than 100 test methods resulted in an init call on a VelocityEngine After more or less 35 correct executions, all the next tests launch an OutOfMemoryError - heap overflow
I googled for it, and it seems to be a know problem.

Actually for me the thing is not to find a way to run my tests. The problem is that the application I'm working on is a generic application, made to run many clients. I'm using velocity to make html mail templates, and each client has to have his own templates, which all are in separate directories. That's why I didn't choose the singleton Velocity pattern.

So even if the error I deal with right now is about the number of tests I'm running, it's nonetheless symptomatic of a limitation I will encounter later.

Is there a known good pattern which would meet my constraints ?

One thing I don't understand is why do I have a OutOfMemoryError. Each VelocityEngine is created by a test case. Shouldn't they be cleanly destroyed at the end of the test case ? And then why would that make an overflow if it was correct ?
