Excluding tests from execution by PIT

I use pitest-maven version 1.4.2.

This config works fine for me:

<excludedTestClasses>          
  <excludedTestClass>de.com.**.*IT</excludedTestClass>
</excludedTestClasses>

Maybe following syntax was for older versions of pitest-maven:

<excludedTestClasses>
    <param>de.comp.**.*IT</param>
</excludedTestClasses>

For those using the Gradle plugin :

pitest {
    excludedTestClasses = ['de.comp.**.*IT']
}

PIT filters are matched against the class names in the compiled binary, not against the source file name.

Your filter should look something like

<excludedTestClasses>
    <param>de.comp.**.*IT</param>
</excludedTestClasses>

de.comp.*IT excludes all tests in the package de.comp. Using de.comp.**.*IT all tests in subpackages are also ignored.
