Hey Todd,

I too got the same issue, If I execute only one unit test case as
opposed to the whole class. It does shown me 'Unrooted Tests' in the
Junit output screen.

I tried investigating on this in net but found nothing about it. But i
did find similar (infact exact) issues in google code base.
Surprisingly, when I checked the same issue today it was removed.

I guess we've two options with us now..

1) Ask in the JUnit developer forums, the same question and wait for
the answer
2) Check in the code directly for any reference to 'Unrooted tests'.

Please let me know,if you find any updates on this issue...

Regards,
Sarat.
