Set system properties in pom.xml?
I think I already know the answer to this: No. But, I feel like I should ask, just in case I've missed some vital piece of information. (Google is great, but sometimes it's hard to work your way through the chaff.) I'd like to control some unit test features using a profile. My current path was to simply set a property in my profile, thinking that I could then read that value in my test code using System.getProperty(key). That doesn't seem to be supported. Is there some other, recommended, way of doing this kind of thing?

Incidentally, I did try using the systemProperties configuration element of the SureFire plugin. It did not appear to do anything. David C.

You may want to take a look at surefire's integration test cases, I has a bunch of examples on how push system properties into surefire. -D On Mon, Feb 16, 2009 at 1:25 PM, David C.

Where would I find those test cases? I see nothing about integration tests on the SureFire page.

Actually, it is in the surefire source tree with its own module. -Dan On Mon, Feb 16, 2009 at 3:45 PM, David C. Hicks dhi...@i-hicks.org wrote: Where would I find those test cases?

any how, what kind of problem you are facing?

Re: Set system properties in pom.xml?
The surefire documentation is plenty clear, but the feature apparently doesn't work. At least, I have been unsuccessful with it, thus far. I'm just trying to pass in a simple string for my tests to pick up. The string is set by activating a profile. I guess I'll dig into the surefire source tree and see if I can find an example that shows me something different. Dan Tran wrote: any how, what kind of problem you are facing?

Re: Set system properties in pom.xml?
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. Dave Wendy Smoak wrote: On Mon, Feb 16, 2009 at 6:01 PM, David C.
