Junit4 - Cleanup on test timeout

When I run a test with annotation @Test(timeout = 3000) and it times out, it开发者_JAVA百科 kills the test immediately and does not call my tearDown method annotated with @After.

What would be the way to clean up in such a scenario?

EDIT: My test is invoking resource end points using jax-rs over the wire and the test times out in the middle of a http request. This is the case I am fairly certain that @After is not being invoked

Strictly speaking, it doesn't kill the test, it fails it. Which apparently means that the method annotated with @After will run.

The code below is working like charm for me.

@Test(timeout=1)
public void testTimeout() {
    try {
        Thread.sleep(10);
    } catch (InterruptedException ex) {}
}

@After
public void after() {
    System.out.println("@After is invoked, indeed.");
}

Output is,

Testsuite: javaapplication1.MainTest
After is invoked, indeed.
Tests run: 1, Failures: 0, Errors: 1, Time elapsed: 0.054 sec

I had some problems with the timeout attribute, too. Maybe this helps you in finding four problem...

In my case the confusion was caused by the fact that the test code in a method annotated with @Test(timeout=...) is run in a separate thread. Therefore some ThreadLocal stuff I accessed during the test could not be cleaned up in the @After method.

@Rule  
public Timeout to = new Timeout(300000);

This works from JUnit 4.7.
