Surefire test property does not run test in given order

Hi All,

I am trying to debug some tests in Commons Lang that seem to depend on
side-effects from previous tests in a run. BUT when I run:

mvn test -Dtest=T1,T2,T3

Maven does NOT run T1, then T2, then T3; the order appears random.

This behavior is unexpected and undesirable. It seems like a bug to me.

Any ideas?
