Oleg Mayevskiy commented on MRELEASE-700: ----------------------------------------- yes, tests should be executed before a release is done. in my case i allready did it and knew that all tests are ok. but i changed some scm:svn options, and wanted just test, what the release plugin will do with this options. executing all tests again in such a situation does not really make sence. in my case i need about 30 min to execute all the tests! the other issue is: tests are executed during prepare and perform phase, why? i make sence for me to execute it only during the prepare phase. that is why i turn them out during the perform phase with best regards Oleg Mayevskiy > 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.
