That's what i am saying that the proxy defined in the settings.xml has totally different purpose. It is used for the Dependencies Resolver in the Maven to be able to download the Maven artifacts. Normally, it is Nexus server of JFrog Repo. But here in these test it is the INT infrastructure which may have no relation to repo proxy. It is no guarantee that every company has the same infrastructure. Even there may be an intended integration test as a component test intentionally testing the HTTP server in Failsafe sandbox and still no relation to the proxy in settings.xml.

> The proxy is configured in the user's settings.xml file.
> Unformately it seems as if there is not easy way to pass them to the child VM when the surefire plugin start the VM.
> The parameters
> * -Dhttp.proxyHost=${http.proxyHost}
> * -Dhttp.proxyPort=${http.proxyPort}
> * -Dhttps.proxyHost=${https.proxyHost}
> * -Dhttps.proxyPort=${https.proxyPort}
> * -Dhttp.nonProxyHosts=${http.nonProxyHosts}
> must only be passed to the forked VM when there are values. if the proxy is not configured and thus no values are present the parameters must not be passed.
