Jesse Kuhnert commented on MSUREFIRE-23:
----------------------------------------

I posted this to maven dev mailing list but I think it's way too busy to picked up by anyone..

If no one is currently working on this I plan on making a stab at it, with the hopes that someone will pipe in and change my plan of direction if I'm going the wrong way. P.S. If you are working on testng integration I won't be sad at all, in fact I'd be very very happy not to have to do it ;)

>From what I read in nabble archives I saw that someone mentioned integrating it into surefire directly, which sounds like a win-win situation to me judging from the surefire code I looked at for duping into a testng plugin. I do have some questions though:

-) I'm guessing that the test runtime should dynamically figure out what sort of classes/jvm version it is working with to execute the correct testing framework? I can't imagine any form of property setting logic being fun for anyone. Hopefully this won't be as painful to do as it sounds :)

-) I noticed that the surefire reports plugin is still going through codehaus, is this just a temporary infrastructure management sort of thing, or should I plan on having the testng reporting aspect of things hosted as a seperate plugin download? I'm sure the reporting aspect part will be the least of my problems, but I wanted to address it ahead of time so an answer was available when I was ready for it.

Please feel free to jump in and stop/correct any assumptions written here. I also wanted to re-iterate that I won't be sad at all if someone else already owns this ;)
