m2 - multiproject - inherit and add to surefire plugin

[Jules Gosnell <ju...@coredevelopers.net>]

I have a number of submodules which I would like to all inherit the same 
sys-props from a top-level pom to be set when running unit tests.

Each module may wish to provide its own additional properties at test time.

Is this possible ? Or do I have to either repeat shared props in every 
modules or merge all props into top-level ? The online plugin doc 
doesn't seem to consider this usecase...

Thanks for your time.

[John Casey <ca...@gmail.com>]

I've setup a small test here, and using the merge-control attributes I
introduced for plugin configuration handling, I cannot get it to work. It'll
take more debugging to get this worked out.

In the meantime, I filed this issue:

http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2218

Please vote/watch it for updates.

Re: m2 - multiproject - inherit and add to surefire plugin

[Brett Porter <br...@gmail.com>]

I don't think adding that to the child POM is necessary, since it is
implied when you run the tests.

What Jules was asking was if systemProperties could be merged during
inheritence. The answer to that is, I believe, no. However, there may
be an attribute that you can set on the system properties to have it
merge - I know there is some code John added for that but I don't know
whether it is exposed, or how it is used. It is certainly
undocumented.

John?

Re: m2 - multiproject - inherit and add to surefire plugin

[John Casey <ca...@gmail.com>]

You should be able to setup your plugin configuration at the top level using
a <pluginManagement/> section, then simply reference the plugin by:

<plugin>
  <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>

in each module POM.
