I don't know the history about WHY they are seperated, so maybe there are (or at least there were) valid reason to do so - at least in this repo. In several plugins the IT are part of the same repo as the code.
In general: I think it's usefull to merge them so that the IT can be run while building / developing it. Matthias Am 08.10.2024 um 08:36 schrieb Guillaume Nodet:
I'd like to discuss merging ITs into maven core repository. The ITs have already been splitted some time ago between the 3.x branch and master for testing Maven master. But I don't really see a good reason to keep the repositories separated, this makes things more complicated when modifying maven code and adding ITs. The following script allow merging the two repositories while keeping both histories: brew install git-filter-repo git clone https://github.com/apache/maven git clone https://github.com/apache/maven-integration-testing (cd maven-integration-testing && \ git filter-repo --to-subdirectory-filter its) (cd maven && \ git remote add its ../maven-integration-testing && \ git fetch its --no-tags && \ EDITOR=true git merge --allow-unrelated-histories its/master && \ git remote remove its) The next step would be to actually include them in a profile and update the github workflow. I think they could be refactored to: * first perform a full run on Ubuntu + latest LTS JDK: - restore cache - checkout - build with no tests - run IT bootstrap (to prime local repo) - save cache - build again with tests and ITs * if this first run succeeds, do the same on other platforms / jdks The cache is important to add imho. It seems lately, GH runners have often problems downloading from maven central, so that would help a lot increasing the stability. So using https://github.com/marketplace/actions/maven-cache or a similar action would be handy imho. We should also upload nightlies from GH. And automate the releases as much as possible....
