You could always use multiple executions of the surefire plugin, one per
test type, such that when more than one test profile is active the
executions are additive, and cause the surefire plugin to execute more
than once. Then, you could setup your database configuration using
execution-level configuration blocks that pass in system properties via
surefire.
There may be a more elegant solution out there, but this should work
relatively well...

Hi all,
I am facing a situation where i need to iterate through (or build ) the
same maven projects depending upon the list of active profiles. To be
precise, we run some tests (testNG through the maven surefire plugin)
against a database and i need a way to run the tests against different
databases based on the list of active profiles or through some other
mechanism. I tried having a seperate maven profile for each database
type and pointing to a different properties file in each profile. But i
still could not get to the point where i can iterate through the build
(or run the tests) depending upon the list of active profiles.
Precisely, i want to have a setup similar to the following:
mvn -Pmysql test & mvn -Poracle test - should run the tests against a
mysql database and an oracle database respectively(which i could do )
mvn -Pmysql,oracle test - This should run the tests against both mysql
and oracle for which i need a solution.
Can somebody suggest something for this ?
PS: I dont want to change the number of mvn commands that i issue. The
build machine always runs "mvn test" once and we provide a list of
active profiles depending on the requirement.
Regards,
Ravi
