Andrew Bayer commented on SUREFIRE-713:
---------------------------------------

Sounds reasonable to me. I'll try to extend what I've already got to allow 
specifying exclude/include patterns as -D properties, at the very least.

> Allow setting of excludes and includes via text files

> It'd be handy in some circumstances to be able to read the excludes (and 
> includes) from text files. This would allow for dynamically determining which 
> tests to skip or include (for whatever reason) before the tests are executed, 
> or for pulling in a list of tests to exclude/include from an external source, 
> etc. We're planning to use this at Cloudera for segregating "flaky" tests 
> from our primary test runs (and vice versa). Patch attached, though I'm sure 
> it could still use work.
