Maven 耳朵和故障保护

Question

I am trying to move some integration tests into the project that assembles the final EAR. Test I want to run are in src/test/java/it. There is nothing in src/main. However, when the build executes tests dont run and following message is displayed:

[INFO] --- maven-failsafe-plugin:2.19.1:integration-test (integration-test) @ project ---
[INFO] No tests to run.

If I change the packaging tests execute with same exact failsafe configuration. Why and how is EAR plugin different? Is there a way to run tests after building an EAR?

Answer 1

First you should locate your tests into src/test/java and simply naming accordingly the naming conventions of maven-failsafe-plugin which looks like this:

<includes>
 <include>**/IT*.java</include>
 <include>**/*IT.java</include>
 <include>**/*ITCase.java</include>
</includes>

Furthermore if you configured maven-failsafe-plugin accordingly to the documentation like this:

<project>
  [...]
  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-failsafe-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.19.1</version>
        <executions>
          <execution>
            <goals>
              <goal>integration-test</goal>
              <goal>verify</goal>
            </goals>
          </execution>
        </executions>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
  [...]
</project>

then maven-failsafe-plugin will be executed during the integration-test phase which is after the package phase (where the ear file will be packaed). So you can simply run maven via:

mvn clean verify 

Answer 2

The different behaviour is caused by the ear packaging.

As documented here , this packaging only has lifecycle bindings for the phases generate-resources , process-resources , package , install and deploy .
