The Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the Maven Invoker Plugin, version 1.6
The Invoker Plugin is used to run a set of Maven projects. The plugin can determine whether each project execution is successful, and optionally can verify the output generated from a given project execution. This plugin is in particular handy to perform integration tests for other Maven plugins. The Invoker Plugin can be employed to run a set of test projects that have been designed to assert certain features of the plugin under test. http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-invoker-plugin/ You should specify the version in your project's plugin configuration: <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-invoker-plugin</artifactId> <version>1.6</version> </plugin> Release Notes - Maven 2.x Invoker Plugin - Version 1.6 ** Bug * [MINVOKER-112] - duplicate script classpath entries are not filtered out, can cause ClassCastException ** Improvement * [MINVOKER-101] - provide property to make a clean clone * [MINVOKER-108] - Upgrade doxia and doxia-site-tools version to 1.1.4 * [MINVOKER-109] - upgrade maven-reporting-api and maven-reporting-impl versions * [MINVOKER-111] - plugin is now 1.5 minimum * [MINVOKER-113] - update to Groovy 1.7.5 (from 1.5.6) * [MINVOKER-116] - Mark plugin as @threadSafe * [MINVOKER-120] - Move various script interpreters to a new artifact in maven-shared * [MINVOKER-129] - Code cleanups * [MINVOKER-130] - Add a reference to the buld-job documentation * [MINVOKER-131] - upgrade groovy version used to 1.8.6 ** New Feature * [MINVOKER-97] - Add possibility to inherit settings.xml from calling process * [MINVOKER-102] - Provide a way to install Extra dependencies * [MINVOKER-110] - It tests must be runnable in parrallel ** Task * [MINVOKER-103] - Update to plexus-utils:2.0.4+ to eliminate deadlock potential during forked Maven executions * [MINVOKER-128] - Remove old workaround for MINVOKER-50 in POM Have Fun, -- The Apache Maven team --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@maven.apache.org
