Looking at the debug output shows:
[DEBUG] Test Classpath :
[DEBUG] C:\Documents and
Settings\benl\.m2\repository\junit\junit\4.2\junit-4.2.jar
[more jars]
[DEBUG] c:\Development\Projects\MyProject\target\classes
[DEBUG] c:\Development\Projects\MyProject\target\test-classes
Which would explain it. Is there anyway to get the test-classes before
classes in the classpath order? Setting childDelegation to true doesn't.
I'm not 100% certain you're using the software you think you're using;
here's some debugging/analysis tips.
Take a look at http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3118. That bug was
fixed in Maven 2.0.8 and called out in the release announcement as a
backwards compatibility risk:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg00432.html
As noted in MNG-3118, Surefire 2.3 had a bizarre classpath ordering bug
that made the test classpath appear to be correct (test-classes first)
under Maven 2.0.7 for some users with large classpaths:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-61
SUREFIRE-61 was fixed in Surefire 2.3.1. Notably, it would make the "Test
Classpath" output in -X look correct, while secretly under the hood it
would munge the classpath incorrectly!
As a result, for at least one project here at my work, we've seen:
Maven 2.0.7 + Surefire 2.3: test-classes before classes
Maven 2.0.8 + Surefire 2.3: classes before test-classes
Maven 2.0.7 + Surefire 2.3.1 or higher: classes before test-classes
Maven 2.0.8 + Surefire 2.3.1 or higher: test-classes before classes
Benjamin checked in a classpath ordering test in the Surefire trunk that
we now run with every release. It's currently passing for me with
Surefire 2.4.1 (and 2.4.2-SNAPSHOT) and Maven 2.0.8, and failing with
Maven 2.0.7.
Finally, note that your "real" classpath is being output in your
target/surefire-reports/*.xml files as the "surefire.test.classpath"
property; that may be useful for debugging purposes.
