maven both include and exclude patterns to run tests from command line

Question

With -Dtest=<include-pattern> I can include tests that match include-pattern, and with -Dtest=!exclude-pattern I can exclude tests that match exclude-pattern.
How can I use both include and exclude patterns in command line option?

Next is not working for me: -Dtest=<include-pattern>,!<exclude-pattern>

If I use -Dincludes=**/<include-pattern> -Dexcludes=**/<exclude-pattern> exclude-pattern seem to be applied only.

Is there any way I can configure both include/exclude patterns from command line?

Answer 1

Try to use quoting while passing comma separated values (e.g. -Dtest="<include-pattern>,!<exclude-pattern>"). This works for me and this is how it's planned to work.
