Surefire JUnit Testing using Native Libraries

Question

We are using Maven in Hudson to run our Java build process and the Surefire plugin to execute JUnit tests however I\'ve run into a problem with the unit tests for one projec

Answer 1

To add a system property to the JUnit tests, configure the Maven Surefire Plugin as follows:

  
    
      org.apache.maven.plugins
      maven-surefire-plugin
      
        
          ${project.basedir}/src/main/native/Authenticator/Release
        
      
    
  

Update:

Ok, it seems this property has to be set before the JVM with JUnit tests starts. So I guess that you have problem with the backslashes. Backslashes in the Java property value are used to escape special characters like \t (tabulator) or \r\n (windows new-line). So try to use this instead of your solution:

  
    
      org.apache.maven.plugins
      maven-surefire-plugin
      
        once
        -Djava.library.path=${project.basedir}/src/main/native/Authenticator/Release
