Can we start the maven build from the point where it failed

Question

Suppose, I am doing a full build on my large project which has 7 modules and on the 6th module, the build failed because a test failed. Is there any way by which I can start

Answer 1

You could run the build of module 6 separately to see if it still fails, but I'm afraid that you need to build all modules from the beginning when you want to run the "big" build.

Edit: Of course the subsequent builds will be faster because the code of modules 1-5 are already compiled, unless you run clean as part of your build.
