Here's some cut-and-paste that I'm using:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-invoker-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>integration-test</id>
<goals>
<goal>install</goal>
<goal>run</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<cloneProjectsTo>${project.build.directory}/it/projects</cloneProjectsTo>
<goals>
<goal>org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-archetype-plugin:generate</goal>
</goals>
<localRepositoryPath>${project.build.directory}/it/repo</localRepositoryPath>
<pomIncludes>
<pomInclude>*</pomInclude>
</pomIncludes>
<projectsDirectory>${basedir}/src/it/projects</projectsDirectory>
<properties>
<archetypeArtifactId>${project.artifactId}</archetypeArtifactId>
<archetypeGroupId>${project.groupId}</archetypeGroupId>
<archetypeRepository>local</archetypeRepository>
<archetypeVersion>${project.version}</archetypeVersion>
<goals>verify</goals>
<interactiveMode>false</interactiveMode>
</properties>
<streamLogs>true</streamLogs>
</configuration>
</plugin>
then, your archetype will be run during integration-test phase for all
subdirectories of <projectsDirectory>, a test.properties file will
contain the inputs to the archetype:generate goal, and the verify
phase will be run on each newly generated project
to add a new test, add another directory under <projectsDirectory>
with a test.properties file
------------------------------------------
e.g.
src/it/projects/firsttest/test.properties with contents:
groupId=com.foo
artifactId=firsttest
version=1.0.0
package=com.foo.firsttest
that will create a "firsttest" directory under
${project.build.directory}/it/projects/firsttest with the stuff
generated by your archetype, and then run the verify phase on the
newly generated "com.foo.firsttest" project
