> This is really not nice and hard to read as the real cause it buried down the stack trace. I would like surefire code to directly make the user's error be at the top of the thrown stack trace, i.e. surefire should not catch user exceptions. This is what I would expect to see:
> {noformat}
>  java.lang.RuntimeException: System property "cargo.containers" must be defined.

> {noformat}
> Thanks
