Description RampantBadger 2016-04-29 08:23:16 UTC 
In the projects view it shows all the packages.
Right clicking on any of these packages gives the option to "test package" which is a nice little feature when troubleshooting failing tests in helping to localise the problem when there is some kind cross-class interference. (i.e. singleton mutations)

However running "test package" runs recursively running sub package tests as well, even though in the projects view sub packages are laid out separately.

For example if I have the following packages listed in my projects view:

org.netbeans.foo
org.netbeans.foo.bar

Right clicking on "org.netbeans.foo" runs all the tests in this package as well as all the tests in "org.netbeans.foo.bar"

I think the desired action and the result are not whats expected by the user.

Either it should run just the tests in the package I right click on or the user should be given the option to run recursively.
