> The current implementation of Surefire seems to look for explicit @Category annotations in the test classes. And will only consider those. Suppose I'd like to add a more concise annotation for this:
> @Category(IntegrationTests.class) <== JUnit @Category
> @Target({ElementType.TYPE})
> @Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
> @Documented
> public @interface IntegrationTest {}
> Annotating my test class with @IntegrationTest does not work. Although I think it looks much better than repeating everywhere in my code "@Category(com.foo.bar.IntegrationTests.class)". For which I add an additional dependency in the interface class btw.
