Description

The Ant build file contains several targets to run specific tests:

• testsome
• long-testsome
• burn-testsome
• cql-test-some
• stress-test-some
• test-jvm-dtest-some

These targets take two arguments, test.name and test.methods. The first argument, test.name, is always mandatory. However, test.methods can be either mandatory or optional depending on the target and the project branch. For example, in testsome the argument is mandatory in 3.0 and 3.11 and optional in 4.0 and trunk. Also, in trunk test.methods is optional for all the targets except cql-test-some.

The purpose of this ticket is making test.methods consistently optional for all the *some targets.
