Description

We have to check all the *.txt files to find the ones which contain some errors. The fact that failed tests are listed before does not help a lot when you have hundred of tests run with sometime lot of logs.

I would rather propose that we either create two sub-directories (failure/success) or that we postfix tests.

A good example :

...
Tests run: 197, Failures: 1, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD FAILURE
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] There are test failures.

Please refer to /home/elecharny/apacheds/mina/trunk/core/target/surefire-reports for the individual test results.
...

Would be better to have :

Please refer to /home/elecharny/apacheds/mina/trunk/core/target/surefire-reports/failure for the individual test failures.
