Is there a way to tell surefire to skip tests in a certain package?

Let me extend Sean’s answer. This is what you set in pom.xml: <properties> <exclude.tests>nothing-to-exclude</exclude.tests> </properties> <profiles> <profile> <id>fast</id> <properties> <exclude.tests>**/*Dao*.java</exclude.tests> </properties> </profile> </profiles> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <excludes> <exclude>${exclude.tests}</exclude> </excludes> </configuration> </plugin> Then in CI you start them like this: mvn -Pfast test That’s it.

How do I get my Maven Integration tests to run

The Maven build lifecycle now includes the “integration-test” phase for running integration tests, which are run separately from the unit tests run during the “test” phase. It runs after “package”, so if you run “mvn verify”, “mvn install”, or “mvn deploy”, integration tests will be run along the way. By default, integration-test runs test classes … Read more
