Kristian Rosenvold closed SUREFIRE-900.
---------------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Assignee: Kristian Rosenvold
System.out and System.err are captured by surefire, and that is not going to
change. You can either use the plugin parameter redirectTestOutputToFile or you
can use "System.setErr" to a stream of your own inside the test; preferably
forwarding the output to the original System.err stream
> System.err seems to be ignored

> Key: SUREFIRE-900
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-900
> Project: Maven Surefire
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.7.2
> Environment: OS/X 10.7.4
> Reporter: Marco Brandizi
> Assignee: Kristian Rosenvold
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: testSureFireStdErr.zip
>

> See the attached project. If I send something to System.err from a JUnit test
> and then I try 'mvn test 2>/dev/null', I can still see the output on the
> console, surefire (or Maven?!) seems to ignore this. I've tried with
> -Dsurefire.forkMode=false too. Is it possible to redirect the standard error?
> I'd like to do that because I have a few tests that tests a line command (ie,
> main()). Since the command is supposed to return XML to the invoker (which,
> for example, might pipe it to another command), I've implemented this command
> line by sending all the logging output to System.err (that's possible in
> Logback via the 'Target' option in the Console appender). When I invoke this
> line command outside Maven/Surefire it works as I want. In Maven, instead, I
> cannot what I described.
