How to get specs2 command line arguments and nocolor to actually work?

[Niko Vuokko]

I'm running specs2 3.1.1 tests with Maven Surefire and would like the output not to have colors.
The documentation says that using -Dspecs2.commandline="nocolor" should work, but it doesn't and neither does any imaginable variation of the same idea,
for example specs2.nocolor, specs2.console=nocolor, specs2.commandline="nocolor=true", specs2.commandline="color=false".

How should it actually work?

Thanks

Hi Niko,

This is confusing I agree. If you try -Dspecs2.color=false it should work ok.

Yes, that seems to work, thanks!
The color variable seems to bemissing from

Yes I am going to fix the guide but also the code because I think there is a bug when using "nocolor" from system properties.

Thanks.
