You merely need to specify the simple name of the desired test class via the system property <<>> as illustrated below: +-----+ ant test -Dtest=MyFavoriteTest +-----+ This will run a test matching the pattern <<<**/MyFavoriteTest.java>>>. You can also employ a simple pattern to select multiple tests: +-----+ ant test -Dtest=*FavoriteTest +-----+ <>: Unlike the Surefire Plugin, the Ant scripts do not support a comma-separated value for the <<>> property.
