junit.jupiter.conditions.deactivate is not behaving as expected.

[dev-jonghoonpark]

When using junit.jupiter.conditions.deactivate, it is not behaving as expected.

Pattern Matching Syntax

---

The path to the test file is as follows

• /src/test/java/org/example/DisableTest.java
  (This test file has one normal test and one disabled test.)

Depending on the value of junit.jupiter.conditions.deactivate, I got the following results.

• case 1 : *
  • expected : tests passed: 2
  • actual : tests passed: 2
• case 2 : org.*
  • expected : tests passed: 2
  • actual : tests passed: 2
• case 3 : org.example.*
  • expected : tests passed: 2
  • actual : tests passed: 1, ignored: 1
• case 4 : org.example.DisableTest
  • expected : tests passed: 2
  • actual : tests passed: 1, ignored: 1

Am I misunderstanding the usage?
If it is a bug, can I try to fix it?
I think the ClassNamePatternFilterUtils needs fixing.

Steps to reproduce

https://github.com/dev-jonghoonpark/junit5-example-class-name-pattern-filter-utils

I've created a systemProperty in gradle for each case.
You can uncomment each case to test it.

Context

• Used versions (Jupiter/Vintage/Platform): 5.10.2
• Build Tool/IDE: IntelliJ IDEA 2023.3.4 (Ultimate Edition)

Deliverables

• Fix ClassNamePatternFilterUtils to work as expected

Am I misunderstanding the usage?

Yes.

The junit.jupiter.conditions.deactivate configuration parameter is used to deactivate ExecutionConditions such as the the DisabledCondition that is built into JUnit Jupiter (org.junit.jupiter.engine.extension.DisabledCondition).

That configuration parameter is not used to filter out test classes or test methods.

When you set it to * or org.*, those patterns match org.junit.jupiter.engine.extension.DisabledCondition and therefore deactivate @Disabled, which allows both of the test methods in your class to run.

Thus, the behavior you have described is to be expected.

In order to filter tests within your Gradle build, you will need to use the Test Filtering support provided by Gradle.

In light of the above, I am closing this issue.
