Clément Guillaume commented on SUREFIRE-1611:
---------------------------------------------
Out of curiosity, will there still be a single parameter that allows disabling
both failsafe and surefire tests at once?
> Deprecate skipTests in Failsafe Plugin

> Key: SUREFIRE-1611
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-1611
> Project: Maven Surefire
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Maven Failsafe Plugin
> Reporter: Tibor Digana
> Assignee: Tibor Digana
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 3.0.0-M3
>
>
> We had an ambition to add prefixes surefire and failsafe in the old system
> properties which do not have them. At the same time we should remove
> {{skipTests}} from {{maven-failsafe-plugin}} because this have been
> associated with unit tests for long and thus {{maven-surefire-plugin}}. On
> the other side the {{maven-failsafe-plugin}} has a better property to use
> {{skipITs}}. Since the {{skip***}} system properties are so famous and have
> been used everywhere, we should not add prefixes for those; otherwise we
> broke all the world. We can make it with other system properties. We want to
> remove deprecated config parameters in the last milestone of {{3.0.0}}. One
> more reason to do these unpopular changes is the fact that system properties
> without prefixes interfere with other plugins.
