Hi, I am using maven multiproject tool to build a project which has two subprojects. I have Junit reports in both the top level (through a Dashboard aggregator) and at each project level. I am also using Jcoverage and Checkstyle reports.
I added some automated UI testing using Abbot and started to notice during the Maven run windows that should be activated only once are displayed multiple times. Checking the logs, I found out that the Junit testcases (goal test:test) are being executed FIVE times! Isn't there any kind of checking like in the javac compiler to verify the results of a previous run and skip the subsequent calls? For example, the timestamps in the generated xdocs files could be compared with the ones in the generated jar files. >From the logs, here is a summary from what activates the testcase execution. 1) First it is called as part of the default Maven execution, just after java:compile multiproject:site: build:start: dist:build-setup: xdoc:init: java:prepare-filesystem: java:compile: java:jar-resources: test:prepare-filesystem: test:test-resources: test:compile: test:test: jar:jar: site: xdoc:register-reports: 2) Then there is a run triggered by junit-report: junit-report:report: java:prepare-filesystem: java:compile: java:jar-resources: test:prepare-filesystem: test:test-resources: test:compile: test:test: maven-junit-report-plugin:report: 3) One more for junit-report: maven-jcoverage-plugin:report: java:prepare-filesystem: java:compile: jcoverage:on: java:jar-resources: test:prepare-filesystem: test:test-resources: test:compile: test:test: jcoverage 1.0.5 copyright (c)2003 jcoverage ltd. http://jcoverage.com/ jcoverage:html-report: 4) Again for the Junit Dashboard aggregator: [echo] Generating data for aggregator [junittests] [echo] Calling goal [junit-report:report] to generate data... junit-report:report: java:prepare-filesystem: java:compile: java:jar-resources: test:prepare-filesystem: test:test-resources: test:compile: test:test: [echo] Generating data for aggregator [junitpassrate] 5) And finally one for the Jcoverage aggregator!

For a small project is not a big deal for a large one it can seriously affect performance. Can it be addressed with maven.xml hooks or would it require changes in the maven plugins?
