Benjamin Bentmann commented on MJAR-138:
----------------------------------------
{{maven.test.skip=true}} suppresses multiple things: test compilation, test
execution and test jar packaging. The later was intentionally done as per
MJAR-90.
Independently how this should be addressed in the future, for now a simple
workaround is to use {{skipTests=true}} instead. This suppresses test execution
only, but produces a proper test-jar which allows other modules to both
properly resolve their dependencies and even compile against those.
> jar:test-jar is skipped when maven.test.skip=true

> Key: MJAR-138
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAR-138
> Project: Maven 2.x Jar Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.3.1
> Environment: jar:test-jar
> Reporter: Andrew Hughes
>
> Not sure if this is a bug or improvement...
> Example:
> * ./pom.xml
> * ./moduleA/pom.xml
> * ./moduleB/pom.xml
> Situation:
> * moduleA produces moduleA-1.2.3-test.jar with the jar:test-jar goal
> * moduleB consumes moduleA-1.2.3-test.jar as a
> <dependency>...<scope>test</scope><dependency>
> Problem:
> * When -Dmaven.test.skip=true the moduleA-1.2.3-test.jar is never built.
> * Then when moduleB tries to build, it's moduleA-1.2.3-test.jar dependency is
> unresolved. FAIL! Even with -Dmaven.test.skip=true this will fail.
> You might argue that this is a bug with dependency resolution with
> -Dmaven.test.skip=true - should a missing dependency @ test scope really fail
> the build??? It probably should - which is why the bug is submitted here :)
> I've no idea what could be done to fix this either?
> ---
> p.s. for anyone with this bug the only workaround I can suggest is running
> another module...
> ./moduleA-test/pom.xml
> and have
> <dependency>...<artifactId>moduleA-test<artifactId>...<scope>test</scope></dependency>
