How can I skip tests for a particular execution from the command line

[Bashar Abdul Jawad]

Hi,

 

I have 2 surefire "executions" in my POM file, one for the test phase and
one for the integration test phase. What I would like to do is to be able to
skip running the tests for either of the two "executions" from the command
line by passing a system property. The problem is passing
-Dmaven.test.skip=true will skip the main execution and not the child
executions. I know I can do this in the POM file but as I said I would like
to be able to do so from the command line. Is it possible to pass the id of
the execution, like this: -Dmaven.test.{execution_id}.skip=true?

 

I have the following in my POM:

 

      </plugin>

                  <plugin>

                        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>

                              <skip>true</skip>

                              </execution>

                        </executions>

                  </plugin>
