[arquillian-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (ARQ-605) Arquillian TestNG base class breaks tests TestNG groups

[Tom Barlow (Commented) (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ARQ-605?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12636676#comment-12636676 ] 

Tom Barlow commented on ARQ-605:
--------------------------------

Cedric,

I think this 'alwaysRun' kind of doubles up for: 

'run in all groups regardless of whether it has been excluded'

and 

'run even after failure'.

Is this correct?  If so, we could somehow split this up into two distinct cases?

I think the reason Arq is using it is to make sure that post-test operations are done if something fails.

> The 'alwaysRun' parameter on the Arquillian TestNG base class causes these methods to ALWAYS get run, even when Arquillian tests are excluded via their group.
>    @BeforeSuite(alwaysRun = true)
>    public void arquillianBeforeSuite() throws Exception
> This has a side effect of breaking maven profiles that use testng groups to select their tests.
