[jboss-as7-dev] (AS7-2796) -DskipTests argument no longer preventing the execution of tests on AS7 build

[Carlo de Wolf]

Note that the Jenkins run (should) use -fae.

But I don't mind the build to fail when module tests fail. Those tests 
should be rock stable.

I can see a potential requirement to only run the (full / partial) 
testsuite on a completed build. This could be done via profiles.
(Parallel testsuite executions.)

In essence the default behavior of maven should not be tweaked, but 
additional behavior defined.
