[IDEA 14 RC3 (IU-139.223) - OS X Yosemite] :: Maven Surefire argLine not used when running tests in IDEA

In IDEA 13.1 running a test inside a maven based project, IDEA correctly used the values specified in the SureFire plugin argLine.  This seems not to happen in the latest version of IDEA 14.

Example:

pom.xml

...
<properties>
     <test.mem.size>2048</test.mem.size>
</properties>

...
 
<build>
    <pluginManagement>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>2.17</version>
                <configuration>
                    <argLine>-Xms${test.mem.size}m -Xmx${test.mem.size}m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m</argLine>
                    <parallel>classes</parallel>
                    <threadCount>5</threadCount>
                    <useSystemClassLoader>false</useSystemClassLoader>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>

          </plugins>
     </pluginManagement>
</build>

...

Should produce a command line of:

/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_65.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java -ea -Xms2048m -Xmx2048m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -Didea.launcher.port=7532 ...

Let me know if you'd like me to raise an issue.
