I am the author of the patch in http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-555. I was wondering if anyone would have the time to review this patch and hopefully accept it for inclusion in surefire. I am more than willing to make further adjustments if necessary.
The patch initially had some external dependencies that were a bit complicated, and these have been removed. The only known issue with this patch at the moment is that the execution times for the tests are totally incorrect. This will require a bigger rewrite of the reporting module. (I can do this as a separate patch if needed, but this patch is large enough already). I will also reveal my ignorance by asking if java 5 features can be used within surefire ? The patch uses java 5 features but I could always workaround if necessary.
