Bill Reed commented on SUREFIRE-845:
------------------------------------
This functionality would be immensely helpful for my team's project. We want to
run some tests in parallel in different JVMs, and want to accomplish this by
grouping them together as different tests in our testng.xml and running them
individaully from maven.
> Ability to specify TestNG test names in plugin configuration
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SUREFIRE-845
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-845
> Project: Maven Surefire
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: TestNG support
> Affects Versions: 2.12
> Reporter: Baron Roberts
>
> TestNG provides the capability on its command line to specify the name of
> tests to run when using a testng.xml suite file. This is very useful for
> selectively running tests while still using a testng.xml suite file. It would
> be a very useful feature to be able to specify the names of tests to run
> within the surefire plugin configuration. Something like:
> {noformat}
> <configuration>
> <suiteXmlFiles>
> <suiteXmlFile>src/test/resources/testng.xml</suiteXmlFile>
> </suiteXmlFiles>
> <testnames>regularTests,longTests</testnames>
> </configuration>
> {noformat}
> Which would correspond to the testng.xml file:
> {noformat}
> <!DOCTYPE suite SYSTEM "http://testng.org/testng-1.0.dtd"; >
> <suite name="TestSuite" verbose="2">
> parameter name="saveBytes" value="false"/>
> <test name="regularTests">
> <groups>
> <run>
> <exclude name="foo"/>
> </run>
> </groups>
> <packages>
> <package name="com.mycompany.joe.*"/>
> </packages>
> </test>
> <test name="longTests">
> <packages>
> <package name="com.mycompany.joe.*"/>
> </packages>
> </test>
> </suite>
> {noformat}
