You might get more information if you browse the TestNG user mailing list. There are several threads discussing Maven Surefire with TestNG. It depends also on the TestNG version that you use. I still use the 4.7 version which is compliant with the current Maven Surefire plug-in (I think it is 2.2).
>From an alternative repository a newer surefire SNAPSHOT version is available, but again that information can be found on the TestNG user mailing list archive. Hope that helps.

The report generated by the maven-surefire-report-plugin is not ideal - I wonder if there is anything I can do. Under the 'Test Cases' heading, I have a list of method names that are not prefixed with the package / class names. In the example report shown from the testNG site, I see test cases in format: 'net.sf.tacos.services.SiteMapTest#testInitialize'. But I just get the method name, which makes it hard to know whats begin executed.. Under the 'Failure Details' heading, I have the list of failed tests, again I have only the method name, no package / class names, and the label and location for all cross reference links are wrong. Each link is in the format: '[testNG group name]. [testNG group name]:' ( e.g 'functest.functest:' ), and the link is broken. Is there perhaps a means to create a slightly more 'TestNG appropriate' HTML report via the surefire report pluggin, or another plugin? As an alternative I can use ANT to run my tests, and use the junitreport task to create HTML reports - is the best I can do right now ? thanks Andy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
