Re: Set system properties in pom.xml?

2009-02-16 Thread David C. Hicks

Wendy, that was a great suggestion.  I should have done so sooner.

Having tossed out my changes in favor of doing something more 
productive, I went back to recreate my setup.  I must have 
mis-configured the plugin.  Now, it's working beautifully.  Sorry about 
all the fuss.

It might be quicker to paste your plugin configuration and see if
someone can spot an error, since passing properties into tests does
work for many of us.

Also, what version of Surefire are you using?

I guess I'll dig into the surefire source tree and see if I can find an 
example that shows me something different.
