Mark Struberg closed MRELEASE-700. ---------------------------------- Resolution: Won't Fix Assignee: Mark Struberg Hi Oleg! I had the same discussion already a long time ago. The rational behind this is that people tend to skip tests way too often. But you usually really should not skip tests when doing a release. So - there is a way (as you gladly found out) - but it requires to not go the default route. And this is imo a good thing which is a welcome side effect of the way the maven-release-manage works. > release:prepare -Dmaven.test.skip=true should work > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MRELEASE-700 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-700 > Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin > Issue Type: Wish > Components: prepare > Affects Versions: 2.1 > Environment: maven 3.0.3 > Reporter: Oleg Mayevskiy > Assignee: Mark Struberg > Priority: Minor > > currently if i want to skip tests during a prepare or perform phase, i must > do the following: > mvn release:prepare arguments='-Dmaven.test.skip=true'... > It would be more intuitive, if mvn -Dmaven.test.skip=true would work. > This is the default way, how tests are disabled in maven. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
