Classes missing during test

[Arnout Engelen]

Since #208, when running the tests, there are sometimes classes that are missing at run or compile time.

It looks like this is due to our overridden test task:

    test in Test := {
      // since we are building for different Scala patch versions, a clean
      // is required to avoid conflicts in class files
      clean.value
      saveTestClasspath.value
      (test in Test).value
    },

It looks like sometimes the clean removes class files (as intended), but test in Test doesn't correctly re-introduce it by compiling it again.

However, when commenting out that line, it looks like sbt already recompiles the classes when switching to a different Scala patchversion. The clean.value is perhaps no longer needed?

I think the clean.value was introduced in cddacd1 , @jodersky do you know how we could verify whether this is still needed?

fixed by #210. if there's trouble as a result, let's cross that bridge when we come to it. perhaps this was only necessary in some old version of sbt?

regardless, curious if @jodersky remembers anything about this

Hey, sorry I'm not up-to-date with this anymore
