[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3118?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_115925 ]
Benjamin Bentmann commented on MNG-3118: ---------------------------------------- Henri, Andreas, I think you are suffering from problems with Surefire 2.3. The MavenProject.getTestClasspathElements() in Maven 2.0.8 now properly puts test-classes before classes (see code in svn or Maven's debug output when using -X). However, Surefire 2.3 itself causes a reordering of the class path in its SurefireBooter as reported in SUREFIRE-61. This issue has been marked as fixed and I just noticed a svn tag for Surefire 2.3.1 has been created. So, it might be just a few days until a working Surefire version is released and this problem is entirely solved. > Test-classes should come before classes in the classpath > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-3118 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3118 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: General > Affects Versions: 2.0.7 > Reporter: Paul Gier > Fix For: 2.0.8, 2.1-alpha-1 > > Attachments: MNG-3118-maven-project-r558713.patch > > > Currently maven-project creates the test classpath in the order: classes, > tests-classes, dependencies. > It would be better if test-classes came first because sometimes it is useful > for a test class to replace a main class during testing.
