Tibor Digana commented on SUREFIRE-1198:
----------------------------------------

[~pwebb]
I think here is the fundamental problem in Spring group using integration 
tests. The ITs are inherently testing the interaction between jar files which 
is the purpose. So I am wondering why if these jars can run in the application 
server, the same file have problem to run in tests. I think it is unit tests 
started by {{maven-surefire-plugin}} which you should rather use instead of 
{{maven-failsafe-plugin}}. Surefire tests classes in particular module which is 
smaller granularity of tests.

> Failsafe does not allow to configure the jar file to use

> It seems that SUREFIRE-855 does not allow {{target/classes}} to be used 
> anymore. Is there a reason why this behaviour was completely removed in 
> favour of only the jar file?
> It would be nice if we had an option to chose between the two (defaulting to 
> the jar)
