             Summary: Support for annotated JUnit @Category
                 Key: SUREFIRE-833
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-833
             Project: Maven Surefire
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Junit 4.x support
    Affects Versions: 2.12
            Reporter: Jan Goyvaerts


The current implementation of Surefire seems to look for explicit @Category 
annotations in the test classes. And will only consider those. Suppose I'd like 
to add a more concise annotation for this:

@Category(IntegrationTests.class) <== JUnit @Category
@Target({ElementType.TYPE})
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@Documented
public @interface IntegrationTest {}

Annotating my test class with @IntegrationTest does not work. Although I think 
it looks much better than repeating everywhere in my code 
"@Category(com.foo.bar.IntegrationTests.class)". For which I add an additional 
dependency in the interface class btw.
