>             Project: Maven Surefire
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Maven Surefire Plugin, Maven Surefire Report Plugin
>    Affects Versions: 2.18.1
>         Environment: checkstyle, maven linkcheck plugin
>            Reporter: Andrei Selkin

> Hello!
> We use maven linkcheck plugin to check links on checkstyle's website: http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/ . The plugin reports that on page http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/plugins.html  the following link is redirected:
> http://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin (301 Moved Permanently) at http://maven.apache.org/components/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin/ .
> Links on plugins.html are generated by Apache Maven Project Info Reports Plugin. All URLs  are grabbed from effective POMs of plugins. 
> Here is the code:
> https://github.com/apache/maven-plugins/blob/trunk/maven-project-info-reports-plugin/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/report/projectinfo/PluginsReport.java#L239
> https://github.com/apache/maven-plugins/blob/trunk/maven-project-info-reports-plugin/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/report/projectinfo/PluginsReport.java#L269
> In effective POM of maven surefire plugin the problematic link is:
> <url>http://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin</url>
> Should be:
> <url>http://maven.apache.org/components/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin/</url>
> As a result, we do not have an ability to change plugins urls on that page, because those links are specified by plugins developers.
> So, please correct the link, because there are contradictions between linkcheck and maven surefire plugin.
> Thank in advance!
