Re: Junit 4 or TestNG 5 suite support
Posted by TslH <ts...@gmail.com>.
Indeed.
It's worrying that this kind of messages still exist for more a year
that I follow that mailling-list, and keep unanswered.
Don't misunderstand my point of view: I'm not blaming someone. I'm
just underlying that there's a major problem in maven2, and this
problem has a name: Surefire.
We're all according on the point that testing is *THE* central
good-practise that everybody wants to adopt. How can we reach this
goal with maven if for each project, users have to deal with a
compatibility problem between surefire and its testing suit? How to
explain that users have to play with a magical combination of
snapshots to get their environment running? That's off-putting.
Now I think we have some questions to answer:
1) What's the problem we meet actually with surefire?
1.1) Does someone have an idea to solve it?
1.1.1) Is there some good-soul to apply and test these solutions?
1.2) Is there someone who really know well surefire and its way to work?
2) Does correcting surefire is the right answer?
3) A subtitute to surefire would be preferable?
Again, I don't want to blame someone, I just want to find a
(successful) exit to the current situation.
Tom.
