turn on useFile=false from the command line? --------------------------------------------
Key: SUREFIRE-631 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-631 Project: Maven Surefire Issue Type: Improvement Components: Maven Surefire Plugin Affects Versions: 2.5 Reporter: james strachan When running tests from the command line (e.g. "mvn test -Dtest=FooTest" actually showing on the console the summary and stack trace of failures is very useful. However many projects have surefire configured in a root pom.xml and often has the default of useFile=true. It would be nice to be able to do something like... mvn test -Dtest=foo -DuseFile=false to be able to get a nice output of what the failed exception is and the stack trace etc. It might be nice to enable useFile=false when -Dtest= is specified too. How about we add a new field which maps to -DuseFile and if its specified then override the configuration from the pom.xml? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
