Description

When maven-selenium-plugin:xvfb is configured in root pom of a multi-module project, a separate Xvfb process will be started for each module in the project. If the project has more then 10 module the maven-selenium-plugin:xvfb plugin will fail with "Could not find a usable display" error.

The maven-selenium-plugin:xvfb plugin can be configured to use a specific display but it would be nice if the plugin would automatically detect an available display and started only one Xvfb process for multiple modules.

A patch that adds support for "reuse" mode where the Xvfb process is only started once for multi-module projects.

Thanks! Can you publish a snapshot of the plugin so that we can use it? Also, any ideas when 1.1 version will be released?

you must take care about this change from your patch. I have made this to prevent some parameters collision

What snapshot repository was it published to? I don't see it under: http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org/org/codehaus/mojo/selenium-maven-plugin/1.1-SNAPSHOT/
Or is there some delay?
