Hi, We solved 13 issues: https://jira.codehaus.org/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=10541&version=19331
This release addresses some serious problems with character encodings in the test report XML files and adds a new Parallel Computer implementation to the JUnit 4.7+ provider, offering a bunch of new options and features around in-process parallel execution (submitted by Tibor17, thanks again!). There are still lots of issues left in JIRA: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&mode=hide&jqlQuery=project+%3D+SUREFIRE+AND+resolution+%3D+Unresolved+ORDER+BY+updated+DESC Staging repo: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/maven-085 https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/maven-085/org/apache/maven/plugins/maven-surefire-plugin/2.16/maven-surefire-plugin-2.16-sources.jar https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/maven-085/org/apache/maven/plugins/maven-failsafe-plugin/2.16/maven-failsafe-plugin-2.16-sources.jar Source: https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/maven-surefire.git tag surefire-2.16_vote-1 Staging site: http://maven.apache.org/surefire-archives/maven-surefire-2.16/maven-surefire-plugin/index.html http://maven.apache.org/surefire-archives/maven-surefire-2.16/maven-failsafe-plugin/index.html http://maven.apache.org/surefire-archives/maven-surefire-2.16/maven-surefire-report-plugin/index.html Guide to testing staged releases: http://maven.apache.org/guides/development/guide-testing-releases.html Vote open for 72 hours.
