Excluding tests with command line pattern
-----------------------------------------
Key: MSUREFIRE-135
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSUREFIRE-135
Project: Maven 2.x Surefire Plugin
Type: New Feature
Versions: 2.2
Environment: All environments running JUnit tests
Reporter: Johannes Carlén
I'd like to be able to exclude certain tests from being run. An example of this
could be a scenario where I'd like just the unit tests and not the integration
tests to run. In our case, we name all integration test with the postfix
"IntTest" instead of just "Test".
This is now possible through configuring the plugin in the pom, however it is
not possible to decide at the command line if I just like to run some tests and
not all.
Example of use with this implementation would be:
mvn -Dexclude=*IntTest test
which would run all tests - excluding those that ends with IntTest
The amount of code needed for implementation is minimal. In SurefirePlugin.java:
Just add a property - something like:
/**
* Specify this parameter to exclude test by their name. It follows
* the same conventions as the <code>test</code> parameter.
*
* @parameter expression="${exclude}"
*
*/
private String exclude;
Add this code at line 527
if ( this.exclude != null )
{
String exclude = "**/" + this.exclude + ".java";
excludes.add(exclude);
getLog().debug( "Excluding test with pattern :" + exclude );
}
...and that's all.
