When you <include> a JUnit TestSuite (with no test methods), no tests are run
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MSUREFIRE-113
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSUREFIRE-113
Project: Maven 2.x Surefire Plugin
Type: Bug
Versions: 2.2
Reporter: Dan Fabulich
Priority: Blocker
Attachments: suitebug.zip
In the attached Maven project, I started with the default Maven getting started
archetype and then created an AppTestSuite class, which extends TestSuite and
defines the static suite() method, but it has no test methods of its own. Then
I added an <includes> configuration that specified
<includes><include>**/AppTestSuite.java</include></includes>. But when I run
"mvn test", it claims that "There are no tests to run."
I've watched this happening in a debugger. The problem is in
surefire-api-2.0.jar in PojoTestSet , on line 249. When attempting to acquire
a list of the number of tests to run, instead of invoking the suite method and
counting the number of tests that come out, it's attempting to
discoverTestMethods on the object (methods whose names begin with "test*"),
which naturally won't work for suites.
This is a really serious issue that's going to block testing for us. (We
happen to attach a TestSetup decorator to our suite, so we do need to run these
tests as a suite rather than as individual test cases.)
