> When a test fails, and the error message contains quotes, the surefire XML report is not well-formed. The error message gets placed in the <failure> element's 'message' attribute, which causes nested quotes if the message contains any quotes. Error message quotes should be escaped I believe.
> This may apply to other elements in the XML report.
> I am using surefire plugin version 2.1.2 but it may affect other versions as well.
> Test Case:
> It's not junit, but it may be helpful. I've attached two faked XML reports that resemble real Maven2 XML surefire reports. The 'bad' one has a message with quotes, the 'good' one does not. I used Xalan and an XSLT found in my CruiseControl install to transform each one. The 'bad' one cannot be parsed. The 'good' well-formed one can be parsed and successfully transformed. I've also attached the XSLT. The commands to run the transforms follow:
> java -cp <path to xalan jar> org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process -IN TEST-good.xml -XSL unittests.xsl
> java -cp <path to xalan jar> org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process -IN TEST-bad.xml -XSL unitests.xsl
