Tibor17 edited a comment on issue #262: Refer to correct property in skipping-tests doc URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-surefire/pull/262#issuecomment-579180987 The author of the doc separated the text been dedicated to the Surefire and Failsafe plugin using IF-ELSE decision making in one doc file. That's the (1). We do not copy the doc from Surefire module to the Failsafe module and we only switch few lines of text which is maybe 10%. The consequence of this PR is (2) and that means the we will have a big problem to split skipping Surefire tests and Failsafe test in the future. This is the impact I can see with this PR. The goal should be to have two properties. Since the Maven knows only Surefire bound to the phase `test` by default and the Failsafe is not bound to any phase, it's the property `skipTests` which sticks to Surefire and unit tests. The Failsafe has `skipITs` property and the bug is with `skipTests` read also in Failsafe. Removing `skipTests` from the logic in Failsafe would isolate both plugins and the impact in the community will be small because we have cca 25% of Failsafe users and Surefire has 75% users. Some users asked me for providing a common property skipping both plugins but we do not have to introduce it because the property exists `maven.test.skip.exec`.
