RE: conditional testing based on compiling

Looking at your build.xml - the reason your tests are being run when you deploy is that deploy depends on jar, and jar depends on test... So the sequence for deploy is something like: [init] [compile] (because test depends on compile) [test] (because jar depends on test) [jar] (because deploy depen
