The Apache Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the Apache
Maven Invoker Plugin, version 3.0.0
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.
