Maven with Surefire (TestNG) is slow after update to MacOS Sierra

Question

Before the update my MacBook Pro to MacOs Sierra, the command:

mvn clean install -U

took about 40 sec to run, with several hundreds of tests in

Answer 1

I've had this exact problem (and spent the last 6 hours trying to solve it). My problem was that my HostName wasn't set.

Check that:

sudo scutil --get LocalHostName

Matches:

sudo scutil --get HostName

And if they don't, use:

sudo scutil --set HostName [YOUR_HOST_NAME]

To fix it.
