hi andrew,
we had quite the same problem and we are solving it with a mix of
subprojects, environment-variables and buildr-integration-setup
the tests we want to run for integration-tests (we call them system-
tests) are seperated into a different source directory called test-
system. we include that directory only if the environment-variable is
set to test-system and then also do some integration.setup work for
deploying servers etc. on foreign hosts.
this setup works quite well because we have a generic type of handling
for all our projects (which are about 50) and we can also use it to
separate other tests f.e. functional-tests (we separate unit (no db),
functional (inmemory) and system (yes they really run on the target-
systems).
kind regards,
peter
