Description

I'm adding some parse regression tests on recent issues. I previously kept them to myself because they make the build slower due to loading from JIRA, but now I think it is important that tests fail ASAP.

The test class takes between 11 and 80 seconds extra to run. There is a setting for maven-surefire-plugin to run the methods of one class in parallel and I managed to get this done https://stackoverflow.com/questions/42065544/ , but then I realized that this would put parallel load on the issue tracker so I'm keeping it sequential.

A further improvement would be to load the files into the local repository like it is done for the preflight tests, but I'll do that later.
