------------------------------------------------------------------
This already works with JUnit 4.12 (Released on Dec 03, 2014)
and SUREFIRE-2.18.1-SNAPSHOT. This issue was fixed along with SUREFIRE-1036.
I will commit IT with JUnit 4.11 and 4.12 for comparing the differences in
behavior.
Plugin Confifuration:
<groups>categories.SomeCategory</groups>
Test Code:
import org.junit.Test;
public class SpecialCategorizedTest
extends CategorizedTest
{
@Test
public void b()
{
System.out.println( "SpecialCategorizedTest#b" );
}
}
import categories.SomeCategory;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.experimental.categories.Category;
@Category( SomeCategory.class )
public class CategorizedTest
{
@Test
public void a() {
System.out.println( "CategorizedTest#a" );
}
}

> Support searching superclass for JUnit @Category
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SUREFIRE-995
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-995
> Project: Maven Surefire
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Junit 4.x support
> Affects Versions: 2.14.1
> Reporter: Paul Philion
> Assignee: Tibor Digana
>
> It looks like when evaluating <groups> and <excludedGroups> using the
> @Category, only the test class itself (and not any superclasses) is searched
> for the annotation.
> It would be very helpful if the search included superclasses.
> Aside: It took me a few hours to track this down. I like to implement
> abstract superclasses for all my testing patterns (integration test with full
> DB vs. "functional test" using stub DB vs strict unit test with mock
> objects). Typically, adding the annotation to the superclass (like
> @BeforeClass and @AfterClass) to handle standard initialization. However, the
> @Category works only in the concrete test class (not an abstract superclass).
> If you need a more concrete example (sample code, etc.), I am happy to
> provide.
> Right now, the simple work-around is to include @Category in all concrete
> test classes where it is important. I'm using it in/exclude integration tests.
