[jira] Closed: (MINVOKER-38) Support easy install of IT parent POM

["Benjamin Bentmann (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MINVOKER-38?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Benjamin Bentmann closed MINVOKER-38.
-------------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

You're right, the ITs could simply use a parent POM via local lookups, I must have been brain-dead...

bq. And no it's locked in maven himself (2.0.9).
What I meant with reproducible tests was to rely on the IT POMs *only*, not on the executing Maven version. The plugin versions in the super POM are a hotfix for newbies who don't know about the issue yet. A mature build setup should never rely on these super versions but only on those versions that are inherited from ordinary/explicit parent POMs.

> Recently it popped into my mind that all IT POMs need to lockdown plugin versions as well to make the tests reproducible. Doing this individually for each IT POM isn't that much fun so one quickly dreams of a common parent POM with a {{<pluginManagement>}}.
> One could already install such an IT parent by means of two Invoker executions or the help of the Install Plugin but that's far too much hassle to copy one little POM around.
