title: Run JUnit test *methods* in isolation
body: <p>Is maven-surefire-plugin able to run all JUnit test <strong>methods</strong> in isolation? I.e., is it able to fork a JVM for each test method rather than for each test class?</p>
  
  <p>The deprecated option</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;forkMode&gt;pertest&lt;/forkMode&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and the current</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;forkCount&gt;1&lt;/forkCount&gt;
  &lt;reuseForks&gt;false&lt;/reuseForks&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>seem to only fork for each test class.</p>
  
  <p>PS: Test methods should be independent and therefore no one should need to run each one on a new JVM (and not to say that it would be very expensive). But I was wondering whether there is such option or not.</p>
