java.io.IOException: error=26, Text file busy

We are using embeddedredis in our (parallel) tests and we recently start seeing these errors on our CI machine.

I guess some file handle is not closed in time?

This is probably caused by https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8068370

And another similar issue:
joelittlejohn/embedmongo-maven-plugin#28

[francisdb]

adding sequential in our specs2 tests helped as workaround, closing this as it's probably not related to embedded-redis
