Robert Scholte commented on SUREFIRE-1262:
------------------------------------------

Forked VM would already be a good start, so maybe this issue should be splitted 
into 2 improvements. I'm not sure it there's a solution or the 
IsolatedClassloader. If it is possible, we probably need to use a 
[Layer|http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mr/jigsaw/spec/api/java/lang/reflect/Layer.html].
 There's an example on the javadoc page. #defineModulesWithOneLoader won't work 
because of the package overlap, but #defineModulesWithManyLoaders seems fine.
It is probably a matter trying several options and having contact with the 
Jigsaw team. I can help you with the latter.

> Add modulepath support

> With the Jigsaw project Java9 is extended with a modulepath. This means that 
> surefire should be executed in a different way.
> When working with a modulepath, the Classpath in the MANIFEST of the 
> executable jar will be ignored, you need need to add everything on 
> commandline. 
> Just like javadoc, the java executable has an {{@<file>}} option, where you 
> can add arguments per line. So this is the new preferred way to build the 
> module-path.
> IIUC for surefire it is important to add {{-Xpatch target/test-classes}} 
> which makes it possible to use the same packages as target/classes.
