Description
**[Pascal Schumacher](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=pschumacher)** opened **[SUREFIRE-1064](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-1064?redirect=false)** and commented
We use maven for end-to-end tests of a highly asynchronous system (which includes third-party software we can not modify). Sometimes only 1-3 out of hundreds of test fail. It would be nice if there were a way to rerun these failed test only.

Research direction
The issue names the Maven Surefire project but no implementation files, tests, or entry points. Begin by locating the existing test-selection and failure-reporting paths in Surefire and Failsafe, then determine how failed tests could be identified and rerun. Done means a defined, documented way to run only previously failed tests, with coverage for the behavior.
