How to run test methods in specific order in JUnit4?

Question

I want to execute test methods which are annotated by @Test in specific order.

For example:

public class MyTest {
    @Test public void          


        

Answer 1

Migration to TestNG seems the best way, but I see no clear solution here for jUnit. Here is most readable solution / formatting I found for jUnit:

@FixMethodOrder(MethodSorters.NAME_ASCENDING)
public class SampleTest {
    @Test
    void stage1_prepareAndTest(){};

    @Test
    void stage2_checkSomething(){};

    @Test
    void stage2_checkSomethingElse(){};

    @Test
    void stage3_thisDependsOnStage2(){};

    @Test
    void callTimeDoesntMatter(){}
}

This ensures stage2 methods are called after stage1 ones and before stage3 ones.
