[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSUREFIRE-137?page=comments#action_67373 ]
Jörg Hohwiller commented on MSUREFIRE-137: ------------------------------------------ I can think of two things: 1. surefire.useFile=false is default, -Dsurefire.useFile=true needs to be activated 2. if "surefire.useFile=false" and one or more test fails, a single line is printed telling where to find the detailled reports. Anyways from my point of view this issue can be closed. I just wanted to point this out from the "outside users view". Some users maybe have no clue about what maven is and do not want to spend their time on it - their only intention might be to fix a problem as quickly as possible (e.g. to get an open-source project build that is maintained with maven). > failure reason not displayed > ---------------------------- > > Key: MSUREFIRE-137 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSUREFIRE-137 > Project: Maven 2.x Surefire Plugin > Type: Improvement > Versions: 2.2 > Reporter: Jörg Hohwiller > Assignee: Carlos Sanchez > > > Neigther with "mvn test" nor with "mvn -X test" I get the reason why a unit > test fails. > Of course I can run the test within my IDE but in my case it worked within > the IDE and only did NOT work in maven2. > After times of digging I found that there is a bug in sufrefire > (MSUREFIRE-115) causing this problem. > It would have saved me a lot of time if surefire would log the reason if a > test fails.
