This is a rant about JUnit, or more precisely, a rant about JUnit's inability to execute test methods in natural method order.

Definition: Natural method order is the order in which methods appear in the source file.

What is the problem?

A command-line utility for dumping the contents of class files.

A lightweight framework for manipulating JVM bytecode.

Foreword

In my career I have experimented a lot with coding styles, mostly on pet projects at home, but also in workplaces where each developer was free to code in whatever way they pleased, or in workplaces where I was the only developer.

My experimentation has been in the direction of achieving maximum objective clarity and readability, disregarding convention, custom, precedent, and the shock factor: the fact that a particular style element might be alien to others plays very little role in my evaluation of the objective merits of the element.
