Created attachment 30450 [details] patch The problem appears in version 7.0.41 and in revision 1493861. I attached a one-line patch (patch.diff) that fixes it. In method "TestNonLoginAndBasicAuthenticator.doTestBasic", the loop over "authHeaders" should break immediately after "methodFound" is set to "true". All the iterations after "methodFound" is set to "true" do not perform any useful work, at best they just set "methodFound" again to "true". Method "TestWsWebSocketContainer.testSessionExpiryContainer" has a similar problem (the loop over "setA" should break immediately after "isOpen" is set to true). I attached another one-line patch (patch2.diff) for this problem. Method "startInternal" in class "StandardHost" has a similar loop (over "valves"), and this loop breaks immediately after "found" is set to "true", just like in the proposed patches. Other methods (e.g., "MapperListener.findDefaultHost", "CollectVisitor.checkSeen", "JspDocumentParser.processChars", "ParameterParser.isOneOf") also have similar loops with similar breaks, just like in the proposed patches.

Thanks for the patches. Both were applied to trunk and thre first was back-ported to 7.0.x and will be included in 7.0.42 onwards. Some tips for future contributions: - when fixing a common problem like this a single patch for all instances is better than lots of little patches - patches are best against trunk (svn will do most of the back-port work for us) and we'll back-port it to the reported version - some code in trunk doesn't exist in 7.0.x & some code in 7.0.x doesn't exist in trunk. We can work around this but you need to be careful about the versions you are reporting things against
