Deleting repos to fix test failures is certainly a longshot.
It appears that Maven built your code and was trying to test it.

Did you look in the test logs to see which test failed and why. Could be a configuration/initialization issue rather than code (points to an IP that makes no sense, uses a database that does not exist or is empty, etc) If you feel brave or you think that the test can not suceed in your environment , you can ask maven to skip the tests and just test it in your setup.

If you delete your repo, you will have to rebuild any modules that you built before. You have deleted whatever libraries and utilities that you built in previous steps.

All,
I have been experiencing a build failure, trying to build nonoss RPMS for ver 4.2.1. The 
error I get is on the SNMP alerts plugin. The exact error message is "failed to 
execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.12:test (default-test) on 
project cloud-plugin-snmp-alerts: There are test failures."
I searched this on the mailing lists and found one other user who was having 
the exact same problem and it looks like he fixed it by deleting the repo at 
the following location ~/.m2/repository/. When I delete the ~/.m2/repository/ 
directory, I then get an error when building, when it gets to the VMware Base 
plugin. My guess is that by deleting the repo, I am deleting Vmware files it 
needs to build successfully. Users also suggested making sure I am using the 
correct version of maven. I have tried using version 3.1.0 and 3.0.4 both end 
with the same error.
Any suggestions?
