Provide a way to skip a project's tests if nothing has changed
--------------------------------------------------------------
Key: SUREFIRE-514
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-514
Project: Maven Surefire
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Dan Fabulich
Surefire should have an "incremental" mode, perhaps enabled by default.
We should check the timestamps of every element of the classpath (and every
class in any classpath folder) and touch a file in "target" with that
timestamp. If none of those files have been updated, skip tests for the
current project.
It definitely needs to be possible to turn this feature off, though, because
sometimes you need to re-run tests based on external resources not on the
classpath: deployed web servers, database schema changes, etc.
