failsafe plugin won’t run on one project but will run on another — why?

by

Take a look at the failsafe docs for the test names failsafe expects by default:

<includes>
  <include>**/IT*.java</include>
  <include>**/*IT.java</include>
  <include>**/*ITCase.java</include>
</includes>

Are your tests named following one of these patterns? If not, try defining the <includes> element in the plugin configuration. Or change your test name(s) to fit the default pattern.

Okay, now that we’ve verified the test class names – typically when I add executions to plugin config I do it something like this:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-failsafe-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>${version.maven.failsafe.plugin}</version>
    <configuration>
    </configuration>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <id>failsafe-integration-tests</id>
            <phase>integration-test</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>integration-test</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
        <execution>
            <id>failsafe-verify</id>
            <phase>verify</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>verify</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
    </executions>
</plugin>

This explicitly binds the failsafe plugin goals you want to run to the correct phases of the build lifecycle. I believe the surefire plugin is bound to the test lifecycle phase by default (for a jar, war, & ejb anyway), but nothing is bound to integration-test or verify.
