No I dont think this is a good way. We end up with having unforseen side effects which causes all kind of pain trying to look into it and thinking there is a real problem. I would suggest if its possible with Maven to have a profile for testing without "per test" that people can run if they like to run a faster test, but with the potential of unforseen sideeffects. Then all the CI servers can chunk using per test and have a longer but reliable test run. > My $0.02, > Hadrian > > On Mar 15, 2010, at 3:33 AM, Christian Schneider wrote: > >> Hi Willem, >> >> that is probably a good idea.
