Description
This pull request updated the inclusion/exclusion documentation to state:
Regex matches are done over paths using slashes ("/") and not package names using dots ("."), so the "." in pkg.*Slow.*.class is a regex metacharacter, which happens to match any character, notably the (forward) slashes ("/") that make up the path. Slashes here are forward, even on Windows
That's not true, at least in Surefire 2.22+. I've prepared a simple reproduction. Built on Linux or macOS, Surefire will correctly skip ExampleIntegrationTest, but on Windows it will run (and fail the build).
Surefire is configured as follows:
<plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.22.1</version> <configuration> <excludes> <exclude>%regex[it/.*]</exclude> </excludes> </configuration> </plugin>
Per the documentation, that forward slash should work on Windows as well as Linux and macOS.
(Note: This also effects Failsafe, as one might expect.)
