Thanks for telling me!

Thanks for the idea!
Yet, gathering information about the test tool TestNG [0], I see that
parallel threads are currently not used for the tests of
libsis-jhdf5-java, as no "parallel" parameter is passed in debian/rules
nor in sourceTest/java/tests.xml.
By adding "-parallel tests -threadcount 4" to the TestNG call in
debian/rules, I allow parallel testing but get no failing test.
I will be going on investigating...
