[jira] Commented: (SUREFIRE-333) testClassesDirectory not added to classpath

["Paul Gier (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

Paul Gier commented on SUREFIRE-333:
------------------------------------

Thanks for including this in the next release!

I wasn't sure if the patch I made is the correct behavior for the classes and test classes directories.  I wanted to have it work where the configured test-classes directory would be included in addition to the default test-classes, and classes in this configured directory would take priority over the default in the class path.  But when I tried it, the default path seemed to always take priority (when two classes have the same name) over the configured one.

So I ended up just having the configured directories, if present, replace the default path in the classpath.  Hopefully this is ok.

> When I change  the testClassesDirectory, these classes don't appear to be added to the classpath.
> I want to be able to compile test classes to the standard test-classes directory, then modify the classes and put the modified classes into another directory.  Currently when I try to do this, the original test-classes are being picked up from the class path, and not the modified classes.
> Ideally the original test-classes directory should not be included in the classpath if I specify a value for testClassesDirectory.
