Make Enclosed runner not try to run the tests in static nested classes without test methods

The Enclosed runner treats all static nested classes as test classes. If any static nested classes have no methods annotated with @Test you will get a failure. This prevents you from having a nested class that is a helper class. It would be great if Enclosed would ignore those classes.

Suggestion: Make Enclosed runner ignore all the inner classes annotated with @Ignore just like it works for ignoring the tests with @Ignore.

@RunWith(Enclosed.class)
public class RootTest {

  @Ignore
  public static class B {
    ......
  }

  public static class FooTest {
    @Test
    public void testFoo() {
      B b = new B();
      ....
    }
  }
}

I tried this with JUnit 4.11 and I didn’t got any error if I put the @Ignore on the B class. Probably fixed already.

@RunWith(Enclosed.class)
public class Test {
     @Ignore
     public static class B {
           public static void test() {}
     }
     public static class FooTest {
       @Test
       public void testFoo() {
        B.test();
       }
     }
   }
