Hi,

could anybody say if is possible to use "rerun failing tests" [1] feature
when I am using tycho surefire plugin?

http://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin/examples/rerun-failing-tests.html


This feature is coming form Maven Surefire Plugin. It should be quite easy
to use this feature, it should be enough to set
"surefire.rerunFailingTestsCount" parameter.

If I am not using Tycho, it works fine when I start maven build in this way:

mvn -Dsurefire.rerunFailingTestsCount=2 verify

I guess that tycho is internally using Maven Surefire Plugin and only thing
I need is to pass this parameter through Tycho to Maven Surefire Plugin
which is running on new instance of Eclipse where tests are running.

I am beginner and unfortunately I have no experience with Tycho, so I will
be grateful for any help.

I went through documentation of Tycho Surefire Plugin [2] and tried to set
rerunFailingTestsCount parameter using parameters offered there but it
didn't work.

Thank you in advance.
