Hi there,

I noticed that maven.test.skip is just a convenience property specially
interpreted by plugins like surefire.
Besides I could NOT find a way to skip integration-tests when tests are
configured to run in that phase instead. This causes the build to fail even with
"mvn -fae" so other developers are blocked by invalid integration tests.

I just wonder why it isnt possible to just tell maven to skip the entiere test
and/or integration-test phase via some commandline option (just like
- -Dmaven.test.skip=true). This would make it a lot easier and generic than 
having
some conventions that several plugins need to support.

Please note, that I have some modules where I have to do tests using the
exec-maven-plugin. Since I do this in the test phase the suggested approach
(skipping the test phase) would work while obviously the exec-plugin does NOT
care about a property like maven.test.skip since it does NOT know if it is used
for running tests or other things.

Maybe you can give me a good reason for the current design or I am just missing
some (undocumented) feature.
If not, should I open a JIRA issue and are you willing to change/support this in
future versions?

Thanks
  Jörg
