The Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the Maven
Surefire Plugin, version 2.7.2

This release includes the maven-surefire-plugin, which executes the
unit tests of an application, the maven-surefire-report-plugin, which
parses surefire/failsafe test results and renders them to DOXIA
creating the web interface version of the test results, as well as the
maven-failsafe-plugin, which executes the integration tests of an
application.

Highlights of this release:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-257 is fixed, which is the
third highest voted maven issue ever.

It's now possible to consolidate surefire and failsafe reports due to
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-570 being fixed.


**** Note to JUnit4 users upgrading:
Due to SUREFIRE-482 users upgrading to surefire 2.7.2 from <2.7
may see some (incorrectly defined) tests not being run any more.
This should be verified by running mvn -Dsurefire.junit4.upgradecheck=true
install at least once (this can be run multiple times until you
have fixed all issues)

http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-surefire-plugin/

You should specify the version in your project's plugin configuration:

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>2.7.2</version>
</plugin>



Release Notes - Maven Surefire - Version 2.7.2


** Bug
    * [SUREFIRE-257] - surefire-report reruns tests
    * [SUREFIRE-260] - Detail display doesn't work if there are tests
with the same name
    * [SUREFIRE-319] - <skip>true</skip> cannot be overridden using
mvn -Dmaven.test.skip=false test
    * [SUREFIRE-424] - A class providing JUnit's suite() method need
not itself implement Test. But Surefire ignores the suite if it
doesn't.
    * [SUREFIRE-468] - When tests timeout, report files on disk are incorrect
    * [SUREFIRE-480] - Improper TestCase classes incorrectly reported
as a failure of the TestSuite class
    * [SUREFIRE-498] - POJO tests have only partially implemented
fixture support
    * [SUREFIRE-500] - puzzling NoClassDefFoundError instead of
meaningfull stacktrace
    * [SUREFIRE-510] - surefire.test.class.path is not set when
forkMode is always
    * [SUREFIRE-515] - Executes nested classes that are not tests
    * [SUREFIRE-516] - Definition of multiple Suite-Files not working
    * [SUREFIRE-519] - junit-dep 4.4+ isn't detected - transitive
dependency to JUnit-3.x causes POJO-test treatment
    * [SUREFIRE-542] - JUnit 4.4 tests skipped for a failed assumption
are not reported as "Skipped"
    * [SUREFIRE-548] - System properties not inherited
    * [SUREFIRE-560] - tests with @Ignore are treated as "unsuccessful"
    * [SUREFIRE-562] - Exorbitant long site-build since surefire 2.4
    * [SUREFIRE-568] - Fork mode of "pertest" or "always" does not
fork per test or always
    * [SUREFIRE-570] - Empty surefire reports when a multi-module
project is ran with multiple report directories in surefire-report
configuration
    * [SUREFIRE-625] - Testclass which fails during launch claims to
have no tests
    * [SUREFIRE-677] - Improve param documentation
    * [SUREFIRE-679] - [regression] TestNG suite no longer succeeds,
with error "testSetStarting called twice"
    * [SUREFIRE-680] - Printout Running TestSuite twice times
    * [SUREFIRE-682] - <skipTests> cannot be overridden by commandline param
    * [SUREFIRE-685] - Cannot pass multiple comma-separated includes
    * [SUREFIRE-687] - JunitCore runs classes that are not tests

** Improvement
    * [SUREFIRE-645] - Meaningful message when test has no runnable methods
    * [SUREFIRE-675] - perCoreThreadCount/useUnlimitedThreads param
should be boolean
    * [SUREFIRE-676] - useSystemClassLoader should have default-value
declared through annotation
    * [SUREFIRE-678] - Fixes to the upgrade check doc
    * [SUREFIRE-684] - Avoid duplicate code in AbstractSurefireMojo
