> There are situations in which the full output of the junit task is needed. 
> This happens typically when the test fails due to an internal error (as opposed to a test failure). For example, if you have a test case which doesn't have all required classes in its classpath, invoking this test will create a ClassNotFoundException. Other examples might include test cases which rely on the presence or execution of native code.
> The stack trace for junit errors that occur before the test method is executed will only be visible if the showoutput attribute of the junit task is set to true. 
> I would suggest to either make the showoutput attribute configurable through an additional maven property and/or to set showoutput=true unconditionally if maven is executed in debug mode (-X option).
