Unit test failures when building from sources under jenkins

Hello,

when I build soapui from sources (a branch in my fork on github based on branch next) using jdk1.7 and maven 3 from the command line, everything builds fine and unit tests passes.

However, when I configure a jenkins job to do the same thing, I get failed tests. At first I thought it may be a problem with tests trying to access a frame buffer (jenkins is on linux and the job is running as another user than the one loggued in the GUI), but either letting anybody use the default X Display server (xhost +) or installing Xvfb plugin in jenkins did not solve the issue.

The failed tests are :

  shouldNotResortMockOperationsOnReload(com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.WsdlProjectWithRestMockTest)
  shouldSaveAndReloadRestMockServices(com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.WsdlProjectWithRestMockTest)
  shouldSaveAndReloadRestMockResponses(com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.WsdlProjectWithRestMockTest)
  projectLoadedFromInputStreamCanBeSaved(com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.WsdlProjectLoadAndSaveTest)
  projectLoadedFromFileCanBeSaved(com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.WsdlProjectLoadAndSaveTest)
  userIsPromptedForSaveLocationWhenSavingProjectLoadedFromInputStream(com.eviware.soapui.impl.wsdl.WsdlProjectLoadAndSaveTest)
  createMockAsWar(com.eviware.soapui.actions.MockAsWarActionTest)

The weird thing is that the assertion that fails appears to be inside one of the classes in the xbean-fixed-2.4.0.jar for which the source is not in smartbear's maven2 repo...

Anybody have an idea ?

Thanks in advance,
