Jesse Glick commented on MCOMPILER-136: --------------------------------------- Probably it should mention {{-DskipTests}} interpreted by Surefire, which is generally preferable: at least checks that tests compile, which does not take much time and can be expected to be reliable on all platforms, while not actually running them which might take a long time and be flaky. > The description of the skip parameter of the testCompile mojo is incorrect > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MCOMPILER-136 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCOMPILER-136 > Project: Maven 2.x Compiler Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.3.2 > Environment: n/a > Reporter: Anders Hammar > Assignee: Benjamin Bentmann > Priority: Trivial > Fix For: 2.4 > > > The description of the skip parameter of TestCompilerMojo should read: > "Set this to 'true' to bypass compilation of test sources." > I also think that the text "Its use is NOT RECOMMENDED, but quite convenient > on occasion." should be removed. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
