-------------------------------------------------------------
I'm also experiencing this issue. If a class fails during static
initialization, surefire spits out the cryptic NoClassDefFoundError instead of
a meaningful stack trace.
Surefire 2.0 does not suffer from this problem. All recent versions do.

I also see this issue. If your class fails during static initialization,

> Key: SUREFIRE-500
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-500
> Project: Maven Surefire
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: classloading
> Affects Versions: 2.4.2
> Environment: maven 2.0.9 , linux/ubuntu, jdk-sun-1.5.0_13
> Reporter: Johan Romme
>
> We are using maven-2.0.9 for some project using spring/hibernate.
> When I made an incorrect change to the spring configuration (or actually I
> removed a hbm.xml file that was still referenced in the spring config),
> maven/surefire failed with an NoClassDefFoundError on one of our abstract
> test classes (where the spring config was loaded). Running in debug mode (-X)
> or increasing log4j levels did not reveal more info as to the cause of the
> problem.
> After some time I switched back to maven-2.0.7, maven/surefire also failed
> but with a meaningfull stacktrace that pointed immediately to the cause of
> the problem.
> So I fixed the problem, switched again to maven-2.0.9, with a succesfull
> build as result.
