[jira] (SUREFIRE-580) Allow "fail fast" or stop running on first failure

["Tomislav Nakic-Alfirevic (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-580?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=309395#comment-309395 ] 

Tomislav Nakic-Alfirevic commented on SUREFIRE-580:
---------------------------------------------------

It would even be useful if test execution was not interrupted, but the result of each test be output after the test, not after the entire test suite. Something that would work like this:

$ mvn test | grep FAIL
SuiteA.test2 FAILED
SuiteA.test11 FAILED
SuiteB.test1 FAILED
[surefire still running]

I imagine that should be fairly easy to implement, yet it would still provide quick information about any test failures...

> We have some slow Selenium builds. Waiting for indication of failure can take a long time. It would be helpful if there was an option to finish the test run on the first failure.
> We could configure this on some of our slower builds so improve the speed of the feedback loop in the cases where there are failures.
