Milos Kleint commented on SUREFIRE-121:
---------------------------------------
I believe pushing the System.getProperties() to a forked process is wrong
generally.
"java.library.path", "java.class.path" and all JVM properties will be pushed
from the maven process to the forked one, possibly polluting it, especially
when the forked process is to be executed with a different JVM instance.
> System properties set on the command line get clobbered

> Key: SUREFIRE-121
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-121
> Project: Maven Surefire
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0 (2.2 plugin)
> Environment: Linux, Maven 2.0.4, Sun JDK 1.5U5, bash 3.0
> Reporter: Brenton Leanhardt
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 2.x
>
>
> Some system properties get clobbered if you set them on the command line. For
> example,
> mvn clean test -Dtest=LoginTest -Dselenium.user=test32
> The 'test' system property will work, but the 'selenium.user' property will
> be null at runtime. I have tried:
> * hard coding the system property in the unit test, this worked fine.
> * setting the system properties in the pom file, this worked fine also.
> * tried an older version of the surefire plugin, this worked fine.
