[arquillian-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (ARQ-646) TestNG groups can only be used to run non Arquillian tests

TestNG groups can only be used to run non Arquillian tests ---------------------------------------------------------- Key: ARQ-646 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ARQ-646 Project: Arquillian Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: Test Harness Integration Affects Versions: 1.0.0.Final Reporter: Aslak Knutsen There seems to be a limitation in how groups are executed / discovered in TestNG.

The configuration methods of Arquillian does not belong to any group and will be excluded from the run when you define a group. inheritGroups does not take subclass into account when resolving the groups. {code} @Test(groups = "run-arq") public class SomeTests extends Arquillian {} {code} The group "run-arq" is not inherited by the Arquillian super class's configuration methods. Ending in Arquillian trying to invoke a Test method without any before / after features, e.g. container start / deploy
