Kristian Rosenvold commented on SUREFIRE-569:
---------------------------------------------
And yes, surefire has pretty good test coverage. If your change does not break
a test then it's likely you didn't break anything. So I'm generally not afraid
of changes to existing code...
> There should be a way to run unit tests from a dependency jar.

> In some cases it would be useful to have a set of tests that run with various
> dependency configurations. One way to accomplish this would be to have a
> single project that contains the unit tests and generates a test jar.
> Several test configuration projects could then consume the unit tests and run
> them with different dependency sets. The problem is that there is no easy
> way to run tests in a dependency jar. The surefire plugin should have a
> configuration to allow me to run all or a set of unit tests contained in a
> dependency jar.
