Tibor Digana commented on SUREFIRE-514:
---------------------------------------
This is very challenging feature. Assigning to me to not forget it.
> Provide a way to skip a project's tests if nothing has changed
> --------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: SUREFIRE-514
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-514
> Project: Maven Surefire
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Maven Surefire Plugin
> Reporter: Dan Fabulich
> Assignee: Tibor Digana

> 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.
