* the IT.</li>
* </ul>
* <p/>
+ * To let the IT create a Maven module below some other Maven project
(being generated from another archetype)
+ * one can additionally specify an optional
<code>archetype.pom.properties</code> file in the parent directory,
+ * specifying the archetype's <code>groupId</code>,
<code>artifactId</code> and <code>version</code> along with its
+ * <code>archetype.properties</code> file, containing properties for
project generation. Both files are leveraged
+ * to create the parent project for this IT. Parent projects can be nested.
+ * An example structure for such an integration test looks like this
+ * <table>
+ * <tr>
+ * <th>File/Folder</code></td>
+ * <th>Description</td>
+ * </tr>
+ * <tr>
+ * <td><code>src/test/resources/projects/it1</code></td>
+ * <td>Folder for integration test 1</td>
+ * </tr>
+ * <tr>
+ *
<td><code>src/test/resources/projects/it1/archetype.pom.properties</code></td>
+ * <td>GAV for the archetype from which to generate the parent</td>
+ * </tr>
+ * <tr>
+ *
<td><code>src/test/resources/projects/it1/archetype.properties</code></td>
+ * <td>All required properties for the archetype being specified by
<code>archetype.pom.properties</code> on this level</td>
+ * </tr>
+ * <tr>
+ * <td><code>src/test/resources/projects/it1/child</code></td>
+ * <td>Folder for maven module within integration test 1 (this folder's
name is not relevant)</td>
