Pavel_K commented on SUREFIRE-1262:
-----------------------------------

[~tibordigana] Answering to your suggestion:

{quote}Maybe what we can do for you more is to print these errors as soon as 
the JVM corrupts the native stream with:
Error occurred during initialization of boot layer
java.lang.module.FindException: Module java.ws.rs not found, required by 
com.foo.api{quote}

I think it is absolutely necessary. There can be tens and hundreds dependencies 
so it is simple not possible to work without it.


> Add modulepath support

> With the Jigsaw project Java9 is extended with a modulepath. This means that 
> surefire should be executed in a different way.
> When working with a modulepath, the Classpath in the MANIFEST of the 
> executable jar will be ignored, you need need to add everything on 
> commandline. 
> Just like javadoc, the java executable has an {{@<file>}} option, where you 
> can add arguments per line. So this is the new preferred way to build the 
> module-path.
> IIUC for surefire it is important to add {{--patch-module 
> target/test-classes}} (was: -Xpatch) which makes it possible to use the same 
> packages as target/classes.
