Test framework should provide a forkMode option
-----------------------------------------------
Key: BUILDR-561
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BUILDR-561
Project: Buildr
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Test frameworks
Reporter: Tammo van Lessen
Fix For: Wish List
When running large builds with complex test cases (like integration tests), it
is often required to adjust the fork mode. Maven's surefire plugin for instance
knows 3 fork modes: "never", "once", "always".
It would be great to support these 3 modes as first class citizen. If a fork
mode is not supported by buildr a meaningful error can be thrown. E.g.
currently buildr's testng wrapper only supports "once".
In general it would be great if test wrappers could support all modes and, if
"always" is not supported directly by the framework, emulate the behavior. This
might be tricky as reports need to be merged if test are run one-by-one.
