surefire

I just installed the final version of Java 8. When I try to build my project with Maven, many tests fail if I use Java 8, but pass fine with Java 7. I've tried running it via the command line with JAVA_HOME set to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0 and via Eclipse with jdk1.8.0 selected as the default JRE in Installed JREs. Both fail. Note that the tests that fail all use Drools 6 (and its dependencies). Here is the output: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Test set: com.local.lds.rules.LocmChiTest ------------------------------------------------------

We use the command line to pass on system properties to the Java virtual machine when running our Hudson builds on a Linux box. It used to work quite well in 2.0.9 by since we upgraded to 2.1.0 it has stopped working altogether. The system properties just never make it to the Java virtual machine. I have created a small test project and indeed it does not work at all. This should work just fine with Maven 2.0.9: mvn2.0.9 -Dsystem.test.property=test test But this will fail: mvn2.1 -Dsystem.test.property=test test The Java code simply does this assertTrue( System.getProperty("system.test

I am trying to run mvn test on my project. The project itself compiles and installs but man test fails with the following output: [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.18:test (default-test) on project udms-server: Execution default-test of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.18:test failed: There was an error in the forked process [ERROR] java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: some/project/Event : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0 [ERROR] at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method) [ERROR] at java.lang.ClassLoader

I'd like to see the stacktrace of unit tests in the console. Does surefire support this? You can use the following command to see the stack trace on console instead of report files in the target/surefire-reports folder: mvn -Dsurefire.useFile=false test h7r A related problem that I found is that surefire in recent versions apparently sets trimStackTrace to true by default (rendering most stack trace in failed tests useless), which is quite inconvenient. Setting -DtrimStackTrace=false or defining <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>

I would like to skip only a single test while launching mvn install . Is there a way to do that ? With junit 4, I add an @Ignore annotation when I want to do that. This would work for you, unless you want to only sometimes ignore the test, or only ignore it when the build runs from maven. If this is the case, then I would ask "Why?" Tests should be consistent, they should be portable, and they should always pass. If a specific test is problematic I would consider re-writing it, removing it entirely, or moving it to a different test suite or project. You can specify an exclusion pattern to

I am trying to get project with submodules to test and generate reports correctly, but have got some problems. I have the following project structure: parent |-test1 |-test2 and the pom.xml for parent looks like this: <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd"> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>parent</groupId> <artifactId>parent</artifactId> <version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version> <packaging>pom</packaging> <modules> <module>test1
