Maven 3 and Surefire plugin 2.6 fail to execute tests that use a custom runner (e.g ClasspathSuite) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-4861 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4861 Project: Maven 2 & 3 Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 3.0 Reporter: Vincent Massol In XWiki we're using ClasspathSuite (http://johanneslink.net/projects/cpsuite.jsp) in a AllTests file. This works fine with Maven 2.2.1 and Surefire plugin 2.6. When using Maven 3.0 the test fails to run with the following error: {noformat} java.lang.Exception: Custom runner class ClasspathSuite should have a public constructor with signature ClasspathSuite(Class testClass) at org.junit.internal.runners.InitializationError.<init>(InitializationError.java:19) at org.junit.internal.requests.ClassRequest.buildRunner(ClassRequest.java:36) at org.junit.internal.requests.ClassRequest.getRunner(ClassRequest.java:28) at org.apache.maven.surefire.junit4.JUnit4TestSet.execute(JUnit4TestSet.java:51) at org.apache.maven.surefire.suite.AbstractDirectoryTestSuite.executeTestSet(AbstractDirectoryTestSuite.java:120) at org.apache.maven.surefire.suite.AbstractDirectoryTestSuite.execute(AbstractDirectoryTestSuite.java:103) at org.apache.maven.surefire.Surefire.run(Surefire.java:169) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:597) at org.apache.maven.surefire.booter.SurefireBooter.runSuitesInProcess(SurefireBooter.java:350) at org.apache.maven.surefire.booter.SurefireBooter.main(SurefireBooter.java:1021) {noformat} To reproduce you can check out and build (you'll need to have XWiki's remote repo in your settings.xml, see http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Building): http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/enterprise/trunk/distribution-test/ui-tests/ Thanks -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
