Re: [tycho-user] skipTests vs. maven.test.skip?

Thanks Mickael and Jan. From the discussion I understand skipTests should be preferred and opened https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=442042 to adjust the platform.


2014-08-19 12:43 GMT+02:00 Sievers, Jan <jan.sievers@xxxxxxx>:

the two switches are there for historical reasons in maven-surefire-plugin.

 

as tycho-surefire-plugin tries to be compatible/close to maven-surefire-plugin as it evolves, we more or less inherited the two switches in Tycho.

In Tycho, both have the same effect - tests are compiled but not executed.

 

The tycho site docs may need clarification though wrt compiling tests and running tests.

 

Regards,

Jan

Subject: [tycho-user] skipTests vs. maven.test.skip?

 

Hi

 

If I read http://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin/examples/skipping-test.html it looks like the Maven documentation recommends to use skipTests instead of maven.test.skip.

 

Quote: If you absolutely must, you can also use the maven.test.skip property to skip compiling the tests. 

 

Anyone aware why using skipTests should be preferred? In our platform build we use maven.test.skip [1].

 

Best regards, Lars
