Avoid repetition of tests

[Alberto]

I was wondering if there is any way using testng of avoiding execution
of tests if any of the files has change since the last execution. If
some conditions were reached, we can certainly avoid repeating tests
that are going to deterministicaly success or fail.

If this doesn't exist, I'd like to colaborate to get this done.

Looking forward to hearing from you

This is more the job of a build tool than TestNG, in my opinion.

Gradle is quite smart when it comes to building/executing only what
should be built/executed.

Thanks for your opinion, I will take a look to Gradle, but we are
using Maven to work..

One problem I've seen with these conditional test runners is that if you use testngs dependencies then you can end up with strange results due to classes not being included.

So your milage may vary...

Yes, I'd have to take care of dependencies, and hierarky, and resources, and maybe an annotation for "this tests is not deterministic" (They shouldn't exist, but they do).

I am not in a hurry with this, it is only a personal project.
