Description

When running a directory of Junit tests, surefire will generate a TEST-(full-classname).xml per test class in the surefire-reports directory. Each XML will contain a testcase for each method in the given class.

However when runnign TestNG test, surefire only generates one Test-TestSuite.xml in the surefire-reports directory. This xml contains a testcase per test method for all the classes in the given project.

This is a problem since it breaks the surefire-report.

• The report wil have a class section with one row, The class name in the row will be TestSuite
• The report will have a package section with one row. The package name in the row will be empty. ("TestSuite" contains no dot so no package)
• Proberly unrelated, but any < or > characters appers on the page as < and >

I have looked a bit at the code and the problem appears to be that in SureFire TestNG Runner(surefire-testng) the methods

• org.apache.maven.surefire.testng.TestNGDirectoryTestSuite.startTestSuite(...)
• org.apache.maven.surefire.testng.TestNGDirectoryTestSuite.finishTestSuite(...)

is only called once, and inside it uses a hardcoded "TestSuite" for the name.

I think it should be called for each class and passed the full classname as name parameter.

I will attach a simple maven project that shows the problem.
