There are appropriate times to do use it, but they aren't common, and I think a lot of beginner Maven users have been misled by online guides. The only appropriate time to use `install` is when you actually need to have a copy of your built artifacts available in your local Maven repository. Otherwise, you should use `verify` (or just `package`, if you just need to build the artifacts, but don't need to run ITs afterwards). > > > > EDIT: Also, thanks for the contribution! :smiley_cat: Thanks for the advice! 😃 I have been guilty of just pressing ⬆️ and re-hitting `mvn clean install` then actually using the more suitable command! 🤣 ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
