--------------------------------------------------------------

I am currently looking for a way to specify the order of the tests as well. Has there been any update?

[~tibor17] The parameter {{runOrder}} does not seem to be an option, since it does not allow a custom ordering of test classes.

> Allow other plugins to specify tests to get run, and preserve the ordering of tests.
> Currently, a plugin may set the "test" parameter with a comma separated list of tests to run.
> However, the order is not preserved.
> For plugins such as the maven-clover2-plugin, (possibly the maven-reactor-plugin?) that optimize the build/test run, ordering of a tests is a very nice way to ensure the build fails as fast as possible.
