Description

When upgrading the surefire version to 2.19.1 I noticed that no tests were being run in our integration tests. I managed to track down the error to this commit and line:

https://github.com/apache/maven-surefire/commit/9cefb7ba43b2550f3ede2952b47d079463c33328#diff-c4dee638bf96f8b3e7763d2652aab7efR207

As you can see, no test suites is being returned when an XML test suite is used.
