John Casey commented on MNG-472:
--------------------------------

My main concern here is consistency with existing plugin functionality.

For example, if I used 'm2 surefire:test' directly, and I'd added a <plugin/> 
for surefire with some configuration like such:

...
<build>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>

      <configuration>
        <test>**/SomethingTest*</test>
      </configuration>
    </plugin>
  </plugins>
</build>
...

then I would expect the 'test' goal invocation to pickup the value for ${test} 
without needing to add a <goals/> stanza to the plugin definition.

In the same way, if I had this:

...
<build>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>

      <executions>
        <execution>
          <id>test1</id>
          <configuration>
            <test>**/SomethingTest*</test>
          </configuration>
        </execution>

        <execution>
          <id>test2</id>
          <configuration>
            <test>**/SomethingElseTest*</test>
          </configuration>
        </execution>
      </executions>
    </plugin>
  </plugins>
</build>
...

and I executed 'm2 surefire:test', I would expect it to pickup both executions 
and run 'test' twice, regardless of the fact that I didn't configure the 
<goals/> stanza in each execution.

Maybe this is incorrect behavior, but I listed this as critical as it struck me 
as potentially inconsistent - and something likely to popup in a bug report if 
we didn't talk about it and/or document it. So I filed this to make sure we 
talked about it.

> assume you specify a plugin in the pom with multiple <execution/> sections,

> It should be possible to directly invoke a goal within this plugin, and have

> This is not the case now.
> Workaround: specify the goal for each execution in which you want it to run.
