It is a project with several sub-directories. In the root I can just run: mvn install. A side effect is that the tests are run. To run only the tests, I would expect I just need to run: mvn test. But then no tests are run and I get: BUILD ERROR. When going to a sub-directory ‘mvn test’ does work. (For that directory.) What could be the problem? Also when I only want to run a certain test set, I go to the directory ‘firstSet’ and run: mvn test -Dtest=SoloTest. I would like tor run only this test set without the need to go into the directory, but stay in the projects root directory. is this possible? -- Cecil Westerhof Senior Software Engineer LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/cecilwesterhof
