Me gustaría compartir un rasgo de ayuda entre las configuraciones de "prueba" y "ello" en SBT, pero no he descubierto cómo.

Aquí hay un ejemplo mínimo:

proyecto / Build.scala

import sbt._
import Keys._

object MyBuild extends Build {

  val scalaTest = "org.scalatest" %% "scalatest" % "2.0" % "test,it"

  lazy val myProject =
    Project(id = "my-project", base = file("."))
      .configs(IntegrationTest)
      .settings(Defaults.itSettings: _*)
      .settings(
        scalaVersion := "2.10.3",
        libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
          scalaTest
        )
      )
}

src / test / scala / Helpers.scala

trait Helper {
  def help() { println("helping.") }
}

src / test / scala / TestSuite.scala

import org.scalatest._

class TestSuite extends FlatSpec with Matchers with Helper {
  "My code" should "work" in {
    help()
    true should be(true)
  }
}

src / it / scala / ItSuite.scala

import org.scalatest._

class ItSuite extends FlatSpec with Matchers with Helper {
  "My code" should "work" in {
    help()
    true should be(true)
  }
}

entonces, en sbt, "prueba" funciona:

sbt> test
helping.
[info] TestSuite:
[info] My code
[info] - should work
[info] Run completed in 223 milliseconds.
[info] Total number of tests run: 1
[info] Suites: completed 1, aborted 0
[info] Tests: succeeded 1, failed 0, canceled 0, ignored 0, pending 0
[info] All tests passed.
[success] Total time: 0 s, completed Dec 17, 2013 1:54:56 AM

pero "it: test" no compila:

sbt> it:test
[info] Compiling 1 Scala source to ./target/scala-2.10/it-classes...
[error] ./src/it/scala/ItSuite.scala:3: not found: type Helper
