Fork of JUnit 4 to relax requirements on static @AfterClass / @BeforeClass methods
A fork of JUnit 4.12 that relaxes the static requirement for methods annotated with @AfterClass / @BeforeClass. This is made possible by changes to the core test driver execution in BlockJUnit4Runner that caches the first test object instance that it constructs and reusing the same instance for each test.
Maintains feature parity with JUnit 4.12 with one notable exception:
- Theories with parameterized constructors are unsupported, because the parameterized constructors require reinvocation for every test.
NOTE: The fact that each test class is initialized once means that test methods that impact the state of the test class can impact subsequent tests. Test writers seeking to use this fork must ensure that they reset any relevant state in between tests.
