> Story:
> *In order to* have more readable and intuitive property names
> *As a* tester
> *I want to* be able to use the arquillian. prefix to configure properties, or no prefix if the properties are specified in an arquillian.properties file
> Scenario:
> *Given* that I define a system property or a property in arquillian.properties which uses the prefix arquillian. instead of arq.
> *When* Arquillian loads the configuration
> *Then* the property should be recognized
> *Given* that I define a property in arquillian.properties which does not use an arquillian-specific prefix
> *When* Arquillian loads the configuration
> *Then* the property should be recognized
> Rationale:
> The arq. prefix may be convenient for some, but to newcomers it's cryptic. We should support both the shorthand (arq.) and the full prefix (arquillian.) when loading properties.
> Since the property matches are done using regular expressions, it should not be hard to add support for both prefixes.
> I also recommend allowing extension to be abbreviated "ext". Thus, to configure webdriver, I could use any of these property declarations:
> {code}
> arquillian.extension.webdriver.browserCapabilities=firefox
> arquillian.ext.webdriver.remoteReusable=true
> arq.ext.webdriver.remoteAddress=http://127.0.0.1:4444/wd/hub/
> {code}
> Since we are reading properties from an arquillian.properties file, we could prepend the arquillian. prefix automatically, thus making it optional.
> {code}
> extension.webdriver.browserCapabilities=firefox
> {code}
> The prefix is really only needed for system properties, which need the qualified namespace.
