Arnaud Simon commented on QPID-860:
-----------------------------------

ant only provides support for specifying a list of test to be run. That is very 
much different than an exclusion list and would be very tedious to use 
especially for excluding few tests. 
As all our tests extend QpidTestCase (if not they should) we can handle an 
exclusion list at that level. I have attached a patch that excludes tests 
(format className#testName) that are listed in an exclusion file or as a String 
(using " " for separating the tests to be excluded). 
If we agree to use this mechanism we would then clean the version specific test 
that some tests use and we would need to update ant for passing the exclusion 
prop as a system prop.

> Some of the tests on trunk are currently known to fail for understood
