------------------------------------------------------------------

{{testSourceDirectory}} has no real meaning.
It is currently used only in TestNG HTML reports.

Anyway, the sources do not matter. The only important is the byte code and thus the standard path *target/test-classes* and the content.
If you use 
{noformat}
<include>**/*.java</include>
{noformat}
, then of course everything is executed what appears in *target/test-classes*.

You can help us to fix the Javadoc of the MOJO parameter and the documentation where [the first sentence|https://github.com/apache/maven-surefire/blob/master/maven-surefire-plugin/src/site/apt/examples/inclusion-exclusion.apt.vm#L214] should be deleted..

In order to filter tests use:
1. -Dit.test=...
2. <includes>
3. <includeFiles>
