Unit tests fail - time differences ...

[Koen Maes]

Hi,

Downloaded 1.5 - I'm very impressed by the possibilities this project offers ! Great work!

I got it to work via maven/eclipse to work (I dont really know about maven) and then I tried the unit tests, but some failed. I  thought I let you know :

The same unit tests faiil for me.

It looks like a timezone problem.

Setting the timezone in AppTest to "Australia/Sydney" fixes
the problem.

Here is the snippet of code I added to the top of AppTest.java

    static {
        SimpleTimeZone.setDefault(SimpleTimeZone.getTimeZone("Australia/Sydney"));
    }
