Surefire trunk currently depends on a couple of SNAPSHOT versions that we
expect to be released in the next couple of days, but other than that, as
far as I know, there's nothing else standing in the way of a Surefire 2.4
release. It includes more than 50 bug fixes.
With that said, the more testing we get for Surefire 2.4 the better,
because (as I understand it) people are going to be auto-upgraded to
Surefire 2.4 when it gets released; when Surefire 2.3 came out, it wasn't
uncommon to hear people complaining that their tests used to work earlier
in the week, but post-2.3 no longer work.
The easiest way you can help us test Surefire is to pull down surefire
trunk and do "mvn clean install"; that will run all of the Surefire
integration tests. If any of those fail, please file a bug with a
stacktrace (and the log.txt from your surefire-integration-tests/target
directory, if applicable).
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/surefire/trunk
The second easiest way you can help test Surefire 2.4 is to try the latest
SNAPSHOT out in various projects you support. If you find that Surefire
2.4-SNAPSHOT breaks anything, file bugs and we'll try to address them.
(Reduced test cases in the form of minimal Maven projects that reproduce
the problem would be greatly appreciated.)
