[jbosstools-dev] Should we use @Ignore in non-runnable JUnit test classes, instead of <include> in pom?

Yes. Designer has had a test-aggregate plugin for all its junit tests for a while now. [1]

Based on an idea from my last job, the TestDesignerTestGatherer[2] class is a junit 3 style test
suite.

It essentially runs through all the bundles in the running platfrom, searching for (in this case)
AllTests classes then adds them to the suite. The suite is executed via junit and the all the
tests individually executed. This works in both Eclipse (using a single junit launcher) and in
maven (by making the plugin a test plugin and adding TestGatherer to an AllTests suite class).

This mechanism can be easily generalised to work with different test names if preferred.
