Thank you Wayne,
I will be careful about that. It seems it was working on my linux laptop,
but I'm sure you've averted some of my future headaches for executing this
on all kinds of shells. I renamed the profile and activation to the
following:
<profile>
<id>conditionProfile</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>some_condition</name>
<value>true</value>
</property>
</activation>
<build>
I execute now with "mvn test -Dsome_condition=true" but still with the same
result:
-------------------------------------------------------
T E S T S
-------------------------------------------------------
Running sample.test.ExecuteAlwaysTest
Tests run: 1, Failures: 0, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 0.04 sec
Results :
Tests run: 1, Failures: 0, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0

There are no tests to run.
Results :

Somehow the second surefire execution includes no tests...
