Andreas Veithen commented on AXIS2-4291:
----------------------------------------
I fully agree. I had the same problem when starting to work on the Axis2 code.
> maven-surefire-plugin skip=true in parent, but skip=false in every other
> module
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: AXIS2-4291
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4291
> Project: Axis 2.0 (Axis2)
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: samples, build,site
> Affects Versions: nightly
> Reporter: Jason Fager
> Fix For: nightly
>
>
> For every module except parent in the Axis2 project, in the build section of
> the pom, the maven-surefire-plugin's "skip" property is set to false, while
> in the parent it's set to true.
> Why is this property set in the parent, only to be immediately overridden in
> every subproject? As a result of the current configuration, its not possible
> to control whether tests are run or not using the usual -Dmaven.test.skip
> flag at the command line.
> This seems like it should be changed so that the parent does not specify
> skip=true, and so that none of the children specify skip=false. This would
> return control back to the developer, to decide if they want to override
> tests at any point.
