                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSUREFIRE-165
             Project: Maven 2.x Surefire Plugin

Create a TestNG test with a method as follows:

@BeforeTest 
public void beforeTest() {
    throw new RuntimeException("Simulate an exception from a beforeTest 
method");
}

When surefire attempts to run this test, the plugin fails with the following 
stack trace:

org.apache.maven.surefire.booter.SurefireExecutionException: null; nested 
exception is java.lang.NullPointerException: n
ull
