I am a newbie to Java/Maven. I have a standard maven project structure, and I've written some helper classes that I want to use in some testing scripts, and those classes are in the src/test/java
. After I do mvn clean install
, I can see that those classes are in target/test-classes
, but in my script although I use the absolute path to the target
directory in my CLASSPATH
, I am seeing a Could not find or load main class ...
.
For instance, I have src/test/java/validation/CrossValidator.java
, and in my script I am using java -cp $CLASSPATH validation.CrossValidator ...
, where CLASSPATH
is the absolute path to target
directory.
Anyone can guide me to accomplish this? I know that I can simply move those classes to src/java/main
, but I don't want those classes to be part of the library jar
, since they're not used at runtime.
Thanks in Advance.
You can add a secondary execution of the maven-jar-plugin that builds a test jar from your project:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>test-jar</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
This will create a jar with a classifier of test-jar
that contains all of your test classes.
More details can be found at Create test JAR .
