Tibor Digana commented on SUREFIRE-903: --------------------------------------- [~chrisjr] The combination of -Dtest=className and -Dgroups=... should work. Can you test it? > Execute tests by group as well as by class > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: SUREFIRE-903 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-903 > Project: Maven Surefire > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Maven Surefire Plugin > Affects Versions: 2.12.2 > Environment: Maven 3, TestNG 6.7, NetBeans 7.2 > Reporter: Chris Rankin > > Similar to SUREFIRE-577, only execute methods on a class if they belong to a > certain group or groups. > NetBean's "Test File" action invokes a particular TestNG class via > {{-Dtest=className}}. However, this completely ignores the TestNG groups and > executes _every_ {{@Test}}, including {{@BeforeClass}} methods that were > supposed to have been excluded (and mutually exclusive!). > Using {{-Dgroups=...}} respects the grouping but also executes all classes, > whereas I am trying to debug only one class. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
