Question

We have a profile created in maven to run our Selenium junit4 type tests and below is the snippet of it without the executions tag.

<profile>
    <id>selenium-tests</id>
    <build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-failsafe-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>2.11</version>
                <dependencies>
                    <!-- Force using the latest JUnit 47 provider -->
                    <dependency>
                        <groupId>org.apache.maven.surefire</groupId>
                        <artifactId>surefire-junit47</artifactId>
                        <version>2.11</version>
                    </dependency>
                </dependencies>
                <configuration>
                    <parallel>classes</parallel>
                    <threadCount>5</threadCount>
                    <forkMode>pertest</forkMode>
                    <useManifestOnlyJar>false</useManifestOnlyJar>
                    <redirectTestOutputToFile>true</redirectTestOutputToFile>
                    <skip>false</skip>
                    <includes>
                         <include>**/regtests/*.java</include>
                    </includes>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>
</profile>

And my TestClass looks like this.

@RunWith(HTMLSourceDumperJUnit4Runner.class) //Our own Runner
public class MyTestClass extends Assert {

     private int x = 1;
     private int y = 1;

     @Test
     public void testAddition() {
         int z = x + y;
         assertEquals(2, z);
     }

}

When I run this testclass through the failsafe plugin 2.11 with parallel configuration it fails with the following error.

Is there anything I’m missing here. If I’m lagging any information for this post, please post back.

There appears to be a bug in surefire 2.11. It does not like to function with

<useManifestOnlyJar>false</useManifestOnlyJar>

I filed a bug.
