Hi all,
I'm relatively new to Maven and I'm working on a web app project. It's
packaged as a war archive, but what I want is to generate an alternative
package that contains also test classes and resources. The ideal situation
is an executable jar from which test classes can be launched. I tried with
the following pom:
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>it.ids</groupId>
<artifactId>PLX-WS</artifactId>
<packaging>war</packaging>
<name>PLX-WS</name>
<version>0.1</version>
<parent>
<groupId>it.ids</groupId>
<artifactId>PLX-WS</artifactId>
<version>0.1</version>
</parent>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.2</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<includes>
<include>**</include>
</includes>
<goals>
<goal>test-jar</goal>
</goals>
<phase>package</phase>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
I tried with mvn jar:jar-test but I receive:
V:\Workspace\PLX-WS>mvn jar:test-jar
[INFO] Scanning for projects...
[INFO] Searching repository for plugin with prefix: 'jar'.

and an empty Jar is created. If I change to <packaging>jar</packaging>
however it works...
What should I change in my configuration? Is there a common practice to
create test packages for web applications? Can you give me some
recommendations?
Thanks in advance
