[ANN] Maven Surefire Plugin 2.14 Released

[Kristian Rosenvold <kr...@apache.org>]

The Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the Maven
Surefire Plugin, version 2.14

Please note the introduction of the "forkCount" parameter and check
the docs for this; a few of the settings relating to parallel forks
have changed slightly:

You should specify the version in your project's plugin configuration:

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>2.14</version>
</plugin>
