A test that should fail but doesn't.

System under test

public class Counter {
    private int count;
    public void increment() { count++; }
    public int getCount() { return count; }
}

Test class

public class CounterTest {
    private Counter sut;
    @Test
    public void testThreading() {
        AnnotatedTestRunner runner = new AnnotatedTestRunner();
        runner.runTests(this.getClass(), Counter.class);
    }

    @ThreadedBefore
    public void before() {
        sut = new Counter();
    }

    @ThreadedMain
    public void main() {
        sut.increment();
    }

    @ThreadedSecondary
    public void secondary() {
        sut.increment();
    }

    @ThreadedAfter
    public void after() {
        assertEquals(sut.getCount(),2);
    }
}

Expected result
Test fails.
Interweaving should allow for the result to be 1 due to race condition at counter++:

ThreadMain reads 0
             ThreadSecondary reads 0
ThreadMain increments to 1
ThreadMain writes 1
             ThreadSecondary increments to 1
             ThreadSecondary writes 1

Final value for counter 1. Expected value being 2, that should make the test fail.

Actual result
Test passes.
