My experience using Maven for unit testing has been positive. It looks like below you don't have your MavenTest class anywhere in your classpath. This is the way I've used Maven for unit testing (but there might be other ways as well). I put all of my application source in the project.xml project.build.sourceDirectory tag (e.g. <sourceDirectory>src/java</sourceDirectory>.) I put all of my unit tests source files in the project.xml project.build.unitTestSourceDirectory tag (e.g. <unitTestSourceDirectory>src/tests</unitTestSourceDirectory>.) Then I do "maven test:test" and all of the unit tests are executed! In this case the unit tests all run against the code found in src/java. You can pop up the Junit swing gui too with "maven test:ui" I believe and run each one individually. One must know, however, how to write Junit tests. If you don't I would suggest you read the Junit documentation. Good luck - Steve > I am sorry for asking such a basic question but I have never > worked in this regard.
