Omitting a test that can randomly fail

[pgrt]

Hello,

The test testRemoveThresholdingEffectArtifact in goby-distribution/src/test/java/org/campagnelab/goby/modes/TestDiscoverSequenceVariantsMode.java may fail as it calls qualityScoreFilter.filterGenotypes, which depends on the output of a random variable generator.

As you fix the seed (as the result of some deterministic computation), the output of the test will always be the same. But if the inputs of the seed computation change for whatever reason, the test may begin always failing. I met this issue when building goby3 against a newer version of picard. I changed the seed manually to be 1 and the test passed, thus confirming the seed choice can be an issue.

I have deactivated the test during the Debian build.

Bye,
Pierre
