Tibor Digana commented on SUREFIRE-757: --------------------------------------- Perhaps we would run into the consensus if extending the Warning message with a hint to configure SUREFIRE plugin properly, something like this: [WARNING] File encoding has not been set, using platform encoding Cp1252, i.e. build is platform dependent! The character encoding for reports output files needs to be configured with POM property ${project.reporting.outputEncoding}. > Project encoding properties is not checked > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: SUREFIRE-757 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-757 > Project: Maven Surefire > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Maven Failsafe Plugin > Affects Versions: 2.9 > Environment: windows 7 SP1 64bit.
