---------------------------------------
Summary: Provider class path is incorrect for custom provider in
Failsafe
Key: SUREFIRE-1396
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-1396
Project: Maven Surefire
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Jonathan Bell
Hi,
When using a custom Surefire provider with Surefire (not Failsafe), the
"provider classpath" contains only the provider and surefire-api. However, when
using a custom provider with Failsafe, the provider class path ends up
including a lot more... it seems like perhaps all plugins that are loaded? This
has caused some mayhem for me when using a custom provider in projects that use
a specific version of SLF4J... because then failsafe forces 1.5.6 to be loaded
(from this process of incorrectly finding the custom provider), causing a crash.
It is a simple fix (3 lines in AbstractSurefireMojo - it had the name of the
Surefire plugin hardcoded, which isn't correct when it's actually Failsafe).
I've got a patched fork of master on GitHub
(https://github.com/jon-bell/maven-surefire/commit/4f6dbb53cd9649b4e84ecf2a730b52976a255e0c)
that fixes it and an integration test that demonstrates the flaw. I am not
100% sure on the formatting of the integration test (i.e., I am opening a JIRA
ticket so that I suppose I can name it under the JIRA issue? How should I
specify the current version of surefire in the integration test package?) - if
the fix is welcome against master I'd be happy to open a PR on GitHub. I am
also happy to merge against a different branch if it's more helpful.
