Default test suit has undeterministic behaviour on win8 + JDK7

[mrlogan]

It seems I have found similiar issue like: https://github.com/KentBeck/junit/issues/429 only in my case it happens on Win8 (developer preview). It happens in underministic way, it can pass few times, later it can fail few times in row, or it can mix.

I believe this will be fixed in 4.11

[lennartdiedrich]

Does anyone has a clue when 4.11 will be released?

[dsaff]

https://github.com/KentBeck/junit/issues/332 is where we're starting to try to build momentum for a release.

[marcphilipp]

I just created a new issue to track the progress of the 4.11 release: #512.

[kcooney]

Was this fixed in 4.11?

[dsaff]

Yes.
