Mike,
You can accomplish this by setting the maven.test.failure.ignore property
to true in your project.properties and then using the following jelly script
in your maven.xml file:
<project xmlns:j="jelly:core">
<postGoal name="test:test">
<echo message="In the postGoal" />
<j:if test="${maven.test.failure}">
<echo message="Test failure"/>
<fail message="There were unit test failures"/>
</j:if>
</postGoal>
</project>
I hope this helps!
