Michael Osipov updated SUREFIRE-438:
------------------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: Backlog)
> Consider usage of filesets to specify suite XML files
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SUREFIRE-438
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-438
> Project: Maven Surefire
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: TestNG support
> Affects Versions: 2.4
> Reporter: Benjamin Bentmann
> Attachments: testng-suites-by-fileset-it.patch,
> testng-suites-by-fileset.patch
>
>
> Currently, one has to provide TestNG suite files individually because the
> parameter {{sutieXmlFiles}} is of type {{java.io.File[]}}. This approach does
> not scale well when one wants to run several/dozens of those files. A
> motivating use-case would be to get TestNG to run a single test class per
> suite.
> Specifying a fileset (like the one used by the maven-clean-plugin to specify
> additional clean locations) instead of a file array would make things much
> easier. This fileset parameter could be defaulted to a base directory like
> "src/test/config/testng" and an include filter of "*.xml" such that the user
> simply needs to drop his suite XML files into that folder and Surefire finds
> them automatically ("convention over configuration").
