[seam-dev] TestNG upgrade for 2.2 GA

[Christian Bauer]

I want to upgrade TestNG from 5.6 to 5.9, however, there is this  
comment in build/core.pom.xml:

     <!-- Surefire can't cope with such a new version of testng, so we  
have to specify it
       here, otherwise ui build fails -->
     <dependency>
       <groupId>org.testng</groupId>
       <artifactId>testng</artifactId>
       <version>5.6</version>
       <optional>true</optional>
       <exclusions>
         <exclusion>
           <groupId>junit</groupId>
           <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
         </exclusion>
       </exclusions>
     </dependency>

After switching this to 5.9 I've had a clean build and tests. Can we  
get this into 2.2 GA? If yes, I can probably commit some nice  
enhancements to test infrastructure (dbunit, resteasy) tomorrow.
