Hi Mickael,

thanx for quick reply!
The <surefireProperties> tag just says, where surefire creates the
surefire.properties files, in which you can read already setted properties.
It does not maintain the possibility to set own properties. I could not find
a way to pass the listener property. Do you have any other ideas?

Thanks for any hint,
Henning
