maven-surefire-plugin not redirecting test output

[Manish Shah <Ex...@tietoenator.com>]

Hi there,

I'd like the maven-surefire-plugin to redirect all test console output
to file. I've added the following to my POM:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.3-SNAPSHOT</version>
    <configuration>
      <useFile>false</useFile>
      <redirectTestOutputToFile>true</redirectTestOutputToFile>
      <suiteXmlFiles>
        <suiteXmlFile>testng.xml</suiteXmlFile>
      </suiteXmlFiles>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

The correct version of the plugin is downloaded along with all its
dependencies, however the test output still appears in the console and
there is no output file generated. Any ideas what we're doing wrong?

Thanks,
Manish
