Andreas Gudian commented on SUREFIRE-1042: ------------------------------------------ I wouldn't mix the way of displaying the stack trace on the console with the parameter {{redirectTestOutputToFile}} - as the stacktrace itself in this case is not printed by the test, but by our console reporter. My guess would also be that it came in with {{trimStackTrace}} - or a change in that area. Currently, we don't have an option to control the output format there (no stacktrace, trimmed stacktrace, or full stacktrace). So that might be a way to go. But I guess understanding when and why the change was made in in the first place would do us some good here... ;) As we have the current behaviour for some years now (2.16 is quite some time ago), we shouldn't just switch back to the default behaviour we had before that. > Provide way of running tests so that stack trace isn't dumped onto console > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SUREFIRE-1042 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-1042 > Project: Maven Surefire > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.13, 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 > Environment: Maven 3.x, Linux > Reporter: DN > Assignee: Tibor Digana > Attachments: test.zip > > > We never used to get stack traces from any failed tests (asserts) being > dumped onto the console.
