How do you find out the default max heap space allowed by JUnit tests in Eclipse? - I am using Ubuntu 14.04. - I don't have any "Run Configuration" override

Here is one post you can Find Java Heap size not the Junit http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2915276/what-is-the-default-maximum-heap-size-for-suns-jvm-from-java-se-6 – Subodh Joshi Sep 14 '15 at 04:56

In Eclipse IDE Junit tests are run in a different vm.So go here ..Run configuration under JUnit (Run>Run configuration>JUnit)
, check if any configuration exist if not add a New
.Within the arguments tab set VM arguments to -Xms64m -Xmx256m
or higher if needs be.
Here are a very good tool for Junit called junitlaunchfixer
This plugin will automatically add a user-specified max heap setting to all new JUnit launchers. It also supports one-time scanning and updating of existing launchers.

No actually I was asking how can I know what is the default heap size, if no heap size is provided in configuration. – Kaynat Quayyum Jun 23 '16 at 10:10
