what's an "Unrooted Test" and why can't I find anything online about it?

I'm using Eclipse 3.3 with JUnit 4.4.  In the olden days, with Eclipse
3.0 and JUnit 3.8, I could select a single test method in the Outline
view and run just that method.  Nowadays, whenever I try to do that,
Eclipse's test runner runs all the tests in the class.  The results are
shown in a tree, and the tests I didn't ask to be run are all under a
node called "Unrooted Tests [Runner: JUnit 4]".

So, I figured there must be some simple explanation, and immediately did
a Google search.  And it found nothing on topic.  So I searched the
Eclipse documentation and website for "unrooted tests" and again got
nothing.  So I searched on this Yahoo Group's message archive, and again
found nothing.

Am I the only person in the world who has ever had this problem with
running a single test method from Eclipse?  Or am I searching for the
web's most suppressed secret?

Someone please tell me you've seen this problem too!  And why is there
nothing written up about these mysterious "Unrooted Tests" in all the
places I looked?


Cheers,
Todd.
