Joerg Schaible commented on MCOMPILER-128:
------------------------------------------

Steve, yep, that's the next point, why don't you use a separated package 
structure? See, if hibernate-testsuite *is* some kind of integration test, 
these tests should not use the same package as the tested code anyway and you 
can use an include pattern like org/hibernate/testsuite/**.

Alternatively you can really do as Brett said and use an additional execution 
of the compiler plugin or you may use the buildhelper plugin to add another 
folder as (test-)source directory. Event the jar plugin can be configured for 
an additional execution to create an additional attached JAR artifact.

The modification of the Maven lifecylce - as implied by the issue's description 
- has much more impact on Maven and additional other plugins and the question 
remains here, if it is really worth. I understand your requirement very well, 
I've had the same before, but that are really rare cases and I was always able 
to solve it with some special setup in the POM as already proposed.

> It'd be nice to be able to specify another compile step in the build process, 
> pointed at different source code and compiling to some alternative location. 
> Using this approach, one could easily segregate test-fixture code that 
> depends on the current module from the unit tests for that module, then use 
> something like the assembly plugin to jar up the compiled test fixtures for 
> distribution.
> Obviously, once this "extra" compile step was completed, the resulting 
> location would have to be added to the appropriate classpath for test 
> compilation, etc. This could be handled using a system dependency (ick) or 
> something like a test-resource with filtering turned off (much the way image 
> resources are handled), which would make it available on the classpath.
