Maven surefire 2.11 release date
I noticed that Maven Surefire 2.10 was released this past september. In jira there are 8 issues associated with 2.11, all of which are closed. Is there any sense on when 2.11 will be sent for a vote on release? I'm particularly interested in the Junit Category support in the maven-surefire-plugin that is part of the 2.11 release.
Thanks,
Bob

I have one other major piece of new (exciting!) functionality I'm
adding, then just a quick
bug scrub and off we go. It will be released "soon".

I seem to remember being intentionally vague about the fix-version ;)
But maybe I just lied to make you do to the site stuff :-p
Anyway, all the features I planned for 2.11 are now present and a fresh
2.11-SNAPSHOT is deployed.
That means I'm just a bug scrub session or two away from starting the
release.
Anyone wishing to give 2.11-SNAPSHOT a spin should have /at least/ until
over the weekend to test it.

Nope you said you'd do it for 2.10... do you want me to pull out the
transcript ;-)

balanced might be enough to replace KK's maven-junit-plugin but I
suspect not as the forks are needed for some distributed testing
madness that KK likes to do for really fast massively parallel test
execution

I said I'd do it, but not for which version ;) No. There are some pain
points in the forking
code that I need to sort out before we can do that feature. I did some
sorting out for 2.9, but
there's more left. But I /am/ sorting them out ;) I'm a big mikado
method fan, and I have a
few more mikado sticks to move before I can go for the gold ;)
The new feature is runorder="failedfirst" and runorder="balanced", where
balanced
distributes tests on threads (and later for you, forks ;) to minimize
overall runtime. This is
especially useful with long-running tests, to avoid a single test
running for 2 minutes after
all the other tests are completed. (This always seems to happen on our
selenium tests ;)
(a bin-packing problem, NP complete if memory serves me right. )
BTW: On the topic of 2.11, there's
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-782 for you, Stephen ;)
