hudson - Maven reporting plugins do not execute if a unit test failure occurs

Question

None of the plugins in the reporting section of Maven execute if there is a unit test failure.

I found that I can set maven.test.failure.ignore=true here - http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-247 The problem to this approach is now our hudson builds are successful even if there are unit test failures.

What I would really like to do is set the reporting plugin maven-surefire-report-plugin to run with the build plugins on a phase but I can't get this to work.

Any idea on how to get the Maven reporting plugins to execute if a unit test failure occurs?

Answer 1

Firstly run : mvn test OR mvn install Then, if the tests fail,please run following target to generate the reports for the test results executed above: mvn -Dmaven.test.skip=true surefire-report:report
