>
> Often, there is one test method per test case. JUnit allows a test class to
> be more flexible: It may generate a test suite at test run time, which may
> contain any number of tests.
> JUnit has traditionally required
> * a {{public static suite()}} method
> * returning {{junit.framework.Test}} (or some type, such as {{TestSuite}},
> that can be cast to {{Test}} ).
> In addition to these JUnit requirements, Surefire imposes one more
> requirement:
> * the class that contains the {{suite()}} method needs to itself implement
> {{junit.framework.Test}} .
> If that additional requirement is not met, the {{suite()}} method is not
> called, but silently ignored.
> Surefire should not impose this additional requirement, but call any
> {{suite()}} method that returns something that can be cast to
> {{junit.framework.Test}} , in any test class.
