Incremental test run
--------------------

                 Key: BUILDR-139
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-139
             Project: Buildr
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core features
    Affects Versions: 1.3.2
            Reporter: lacton
             Fix For: 1.3.3


Tests should be run in an incremental way, just like compile or package.  If 
nothing has changed, the default behavior should be to skip the tests.  If 
anything has changed, it should be to run the tests.  This decision should be 
on a per-project basis.

A test run is needed if and only if
1. there one or more test dependencies with a timestamp later than the time of 
the last successful test run for this project
OR
2. there is no record of a successful test run for this project

User choices should override all incremental mechanisms. For instance, the 
following should have precedence.
- test=all or test=no (or their equivalent with environment variables)
- test:SomeTest

In this context, a change means anything that could affect the project, be it a 
change in a source file, in a resource, in a required project, in the buildfile 
or in build.yml.

Individual project test and build tasks should run the tests or not, based on 
the above criteria.
