Hi, I'm an user of Maven's report plugins (such as checkstyle, javancss, coberture, surefire, findbugs). Most of the projects I work on are multi module projects. A review of these plugins learned that most of them do not have an aggregate report . One plugin that does (JavaNCSS) noted that there are problems with it:
“When running against a project which has no source but has child modules, the JavaNCSS plugin will attempt to aggregate any child JavaNCSS reports into an aggregate report. Unfortunately Maven's internal support for report aggregation is rather poor so it does have a number of limitations. Foremost the aggregate report is generated *before* the child reports so you must re-run the JavaNCSS report after the children have generated” http://mojo.codehaus.org/javancss-maven-plugin/howto.html I think that aggregate reports on the whole project would be very valuable. Others also expressed their interest in it (http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg49155.html, http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg53750.html). Does any one know if there are already concrete attempts made to enable aggregate reports? Are there any ideas on how to implement it (for example implemented in the plugins themselves or separated from the plugins)?
