Re: [infinispan-dev] Infinispan smoke tests?

good idea. CI can always run your smoke tests and help ensure they are at least run somewhere ;) The only thing that's a bugger is that the surefire plugin doesn't honor groups very well. We'd have to name these tests *SmokeTest (or place in a different dir) and setup a special maven profile "smoke" which includes them in the integration-test phase. As you might guess, we'd have to modify the default integration-test to exclude them. yay maven! ;)
