A valid SecureContext was not provided in the RequestContext

[begunrom]

I have created a custom nodelocator. I know the nodelocator class is working, as i already successfully used it in another module.
In my unit tests, i run a test with user admin.
At the line that starts with return, i get the following error.
<code>
@Override
   public NodeRef getNode(NodeRef arg0, Map<String, Serializable> arg1) {
      String name = cmcConfig.getProperty("cmcDataSpace");
//      NodeRef companyHome = nodeLocatorService1.getNode(CompanyHomeNodeLocator.NAME, null, null);
      NodeRef companyHome = companyHomeNodeLocator.getNode(null, null);

      logger.debug("FullyAuthenticatedUser = " + AuthenticationUtil.getFullyAuthenticatedUser());
      return nodeService.getChildByName(companyHome, ContentModel.ASSOC_CONTAINS, name);
   }
<\code>

I have been browsing on the internet on this topic, but could not find anything that pointed me in the right direction.
I can debug it till i reach the proxy object.


Can anyone help?
Alfresco version : 4.2.c

Problem disappears if you remove the timeout from the test.

So
@Test   (timeout=500000) DOES NOT WORK

@Test WORKS.

Can anyone explain???? It must have something to do with the alfresco maven integration.
