Perhaps this is a local issue but I'd rather post it. When executing TaxonomyTermTestCase via php ./scripts/run-tests.sh --url http://localhost/rdf --verbose --color --class TaxonomyTermTestCase I get the following output on my screen:

This means there are some passing tests whcih are in fact executed by some functions in the setUp method but the real tests are never executed, instead I get the above HTML output. Can someone look at this?

This is specific to you Stefan. I was just able to run the same command you used and I got a full page of passing test results.

Could it have been fixed by this recent commit? #607652: Uncaught exceptions in taxonomy tests

That could be asimmonds! Stefan can you check that your tests now run and pass?
