Description

See SUREFIRE-964 as well. The XML produced is invalid because schemaLocation must include two URIs, as outlined in xmlschema-1.

Because of this, the Xerces parser fails in the Jenkins XUnit plugin and e.g. IntelliJ is not able to parse the file correctly.

Suggested solution is to replace xsi:schemaLocation by xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation, which fixes this for the Unit plugin as well the file is parseable by IntelliJ.
