I'm not sure about this. AFAIK, the way surefire detects classes to run is by scanning the test source directory. This directory (in launchpad.testing) will be empty. What has to be done is the creation of some test suites in the new tests project and then a trivial invocation of this from the testing module.

This is basically what Jackrabbit does. http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/jackrabbit/trunk/jackrabbit-spi2dav/src/test/java/org/apache/jackrabbit/test/TestAll.java references tests in (test-scoped) dependencies. But without this suite, the tests wouldn't be invoked.

> Currently the integration tests in launchpad/testing are designed so that you'll need to manually run that Maven build with specific options if you want to test an external Sling instance.
> It would be great if a downstream project could instead import those test cases as a test dependency to their own integration test suite.
