Integration tests lifecycle
---------------------------

         Key: MNG-591
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-591
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: Improvement
 Reporter: Kenney Westerhof


I'm trying to do an integration test that depends on a war/ear to be deployed.

What i'm missing is:

- integration-test-compile stage and/or:
- a way to specify an integrationTestSourceDirectory or multiple 
testSourceDirectories in the pom

I can't put the test sources in src/test/java because then surefire will run 
them in the test stage, when
there's no artifact to deploy yet. 

[Btw, I'm doing this while creating a cactus plugin, for the moment using cargo 
in the TestSuite itself to deploy.]

The idea is that the integration test sources go in src/itest/*; that there be 
a integration-test-compile,
integration-test-package and/or integration-test-appdeploy[or something] and 
that surefire
is also bound to integration-test.

Maybe something can be done using the src/test/project/some-project/.... 
approach seen in
maven-javadoc-plugin, maven-site-plugin and maven-eclipse-plugin (i'd like to 
see some of that
standardized anyway to allow plugin testing generally - which can also be seen 
as integration testing).

Thoughts, comments, approaches?
