NAME

maven_verify_multi_module - Focused test execution of specific modules in a Maven multi-module project.

SYNOPSIS

maven_verify_multi_module [-g (compile|install)] [-s] [-h] target-module(s)

DESCRIPTION

Running tests on a (complex) Maven multi-module project for a specifc target module can be time consuming. This script helps to ‘compile’ or ‘install’ the dependencies for that target module and runs the test of that target module afterwards.

This helper requires either a local Maven wrapper (mvnw) or a globally installed Maven executable.

OPTIONS

-g (compile|install), --dependencies-goal=(compile|install)

Whether to execute the ‘compile’ or ‘install’ goal for the dependencies. (defaults to “compile”)

-s, --skip-dependencies-tests, --no-skip-dependencies-tests

Whether to skip tests on dependencies build phase or not. (defaults to “false”)

-h, --help

Prints help

target-module(s)

The target module(s) for which the tests should be run for. Comma-separated if multiple modules should be targeted.

EXIT STATUS

0

successful execution

1

error while parsing command line arguments

64

no valid Maven executable found

EXAMPLES

If the multi-module project requires to install the dependencies, use the -g argument with the value set to “install”:

$ maven_verify_multi_module -g install my-module-name

To skip running tests of the target module(s) dependencies use the -s flag:

$ maven_verify_multi_module -s my-module-name

To run MVVM for multiple target modules, use a comma-separated list of module names:

$ maven_verify_multi_module mod1,mod2
