Description

Overriding excludes in a profile does not work, the override is simply ignored. This configuration should prevent surefire from running certain tests except when the profile run-integration-tests is set:

<project ...>
<build>
<pluginManagement>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.12</version>
<configuration>
<excludes>
<exclude>**/*IntegrationTest.java</exclude>
</excludes>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</pluginManagement>
</build>

<profiles>
<profile>
<id>run-integration-tests</id>
<build>
<pluginManagement>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<excludes />
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</pluginManagement>
</build>
</profile>
</profiles>
</project>

As a work-around, this ugly syntax can be applied:

<project ...>
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>run-integration-tests</id>
<build>
<pluginManagement>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<excludes>
<exclude>NONE</exclude>
</excludes>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</pluginManagement>
</build>
</profile>
</profiles>
</project>

However, I consider this a bug.
