Hey Michael, Afaics there is no way to define the order of tests with the surefire plugin. Maybe another plugin could help you.
But IMHO i would suggest to remove the dependencies of your tests. E.g. using the @Before annotation. Otherwise you can never be sure that your tests are working after changing one of your dependent tests. This is more an advice than an useful hint. But i'm pretty sure that the surefire plugin itself wont help you defining the order of your tests.

I am facing some cross-test dependencies issues and thus would like to investigate how tests perform when ran in a specific order. I have tried using the' test' flag, as in: mvn -Dtest=ATest,BTest,CTest test However, this does not necessarily execute the tests in the specified order (eg. CTest is executed before ATest or BTest). Is it possible to specify a strict order, through which unit tests should be executed?
