Found a relatively reasonable work-around for this problem (by not using
surefire at all). I can now use the @BeforeSuite and @AfterSuite
functionality of TestNG (and probably the suite functionality of Junit
if I ever need to switch).
Instead of using surefire, I'm using the maven antrun plug-in as
follows:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>test</phase>
<configuration>
<tasks>
<taskdef name="testng" classname="org.testng.TestNGAntTask">
<classpath refid="maven.test.classpath"/>
</taskdef>
<testng classpathref="maven.test.classpath"
outputDir="${project.build.directory}/surefire-reports"
sourcedir="${project.build.testSourceDirectory}"
workingDir="${basedir}"
haltonfailure="true">
<xmlfileset dir="src/test/resources"
includes="integrationTests.xml"/>
</testng>
</tasks>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>run</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
Hope this helps somebody...

Well, one reason could be that I haven't found a defect related to suite
support for either TestNG or Junit.
Does one exist already or is one needed? I'm guessing they should be
separate defects?

I don't understand either why surefire is not top-priority for the maven
devs to have everthing working that JUnit and TestNG support. Especially
since testing is part of the default lifecycle.
