Cannot use jacoco JVM args and surefire JVM args together in maven

Question

I am using maven with the jacoco plugin to generate code coverage metrics. I am having some difficulty in configuring the surefire plugin with the java opt

Answer 1

I have added a Maven/Java project with 1 domain class with the following features:

• Unit or Integration testing with the plugins Surefire and Failsafe.
• Findbugs.
• Test coverage via Jacoco.

I kept the project as simple as possible. The project puts many suggestions from these and other posts together in an example project. Thank you, contributors!

The readme file gives a brief explanation. It explains how you can run either a user or an integration test with Jacoco.

Enjoy!
