Your example tries to check if hosts is set.You can do this by adding @required
doclet-tag to the field. Now Maven (actually Plexus) will check it for you. If
you simple, plain old test, just use junit.But if you depend on injection you
should try the maven-invoker-plugin. It's nothing more than making
mini-projects, trying to run it with Maven and optionally verify the outcome.
