Description

SecurityAllowedTestCase fails randomly, which could indicate either a bug in the test case or in the implementation.

On some random condition the call to log.info("testing"); in the test case results in security exceptions, which are recorded by MockSecurityManager causing the test case to fail. Adding a call to Thread.sleep just before or just after the call to log.info helps with reproducing the problem.

The path leading to SecurityException being thrown is:
