Re: Separate unit test / functional test directories?
Thanks David, that seems like a reasonable approach. I'm a bit surprised, though, given that the philosophy of Maven is convention over configuration, that there is no standard way of doing this, such as separate test and integrationTest directories.

Re: Separate unit test / functional test directories?
given that the philosophy of Maven is convention over configuration, that there is no standard way of doing this, such as separate test and integrationTest directories. Uhhh there is a standard way of doing this [1]: Inclusions By default, the Failsafe Plugin will automatically include all test classes with the following wildcard patterns: **/IT*.java - includes all of its subdirectories and all java filenames that start with IT. **/*IT.java - includes all of its subdirectories and all java filenames that end with IT. **/*ITCase.java - includes all of its subdirectories and all java filenames that end with ITCase. If the test classes does not go with the naming convention, then configure Failsafe Plugin and specify the tests you want to include.
