According to several Ant resources I read, you cannot yet do this with Ant tags, although it is frequently requested. Luckily Maven uses Jelly, where it is easy. You can simply do this: <preGoal name="test:test"> <j:thread> <attainGoal name="start_test_server"/> </j:thread> <sleep seconds="10"/> </preGoal>
inside the test:test preGoal.

In trying to learn Maven, I'm converting from a current Ant build. At
one point I need to run a server in the background, but I can't figure
out how to do it. Our Ant test target has lines roughly like this:
<parallel>
<antcall target="start_test_server"/>
<sequential>
<sleep seconds="10"/>
<antcall target="run_server_tests"/>
<antcall target="stop_test_server"/>
</sequential>
</parallel>
I was thinking the start and stop server targets would be test:test
preGoal and postGoals, respectively, and the run server target (which
uses JUnit) would be handled by test:test.
My problem is the test server must run in the background so the
test:test preGoal can finish, but I don't know how do make it so. I've
looked at the cactus plugin, but that seems to be geared towards
appservers like Tomcat. Ours is a SOAP server using GLUE.
Could anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks.
