Probably depends what you want, with -fn the tests still run with
-Dmaven.test.skip=true they don't. Not running the tests makes the build
much faster but without running the tests you don't know what problems there
might be with the jars that get built. A key thing is that with -fn a test
failure in one module does not stop the build of other modules, but, the jar
for the module with the test failure does not get built so if you want to
ignore a test failure but still rebuild a module then you need to use
-Dmaven.test.skip=true. On the other hand for things like the itest modules
you just want to see the tests results so it doesn't make much sense to use
-Dmaven.test.skip=true but -fn can be useful to see how good or bad the
state of the code is.
That's more I could dream of! I have never used -fn before so it's
nice to have read so comprehensive explanation why it might be useful.
Thanks.
And helpful to all the other developers and readers too! Thanks Ant.
