Hi all,
As I was working on MDEP-666 I noticed the test suite for the tree mojo
is effectively disabled. This is also blocking progress on MDEP-435, as
it's hard to verify it doesn't break anything. So I thought of
re-enabling the test suite for the tree mojo. I found a way to make it
work, but it requires changes to the way "stub" artifacts are created.
Creating stub artifacts is done in the "ArtifactStubFactory" class,
which comes from the maven-plugin-testing-harness module. That class has
a method "getReleaseAndSnapshotArtifacts()" which creates and returns a
sample "release" and "snapshot" artifact. (Side-note: I don't like
getXXX methods that do more that returning something that's already
there.) The "ArtifactStubFactory" class can be configured to also create
(empty) files on disk matching the artifacts. Unfortunately, it will
only create the artifact file itself (say
test-group/test-artifact/1.0/test-artifact-1.0.jar), but not the
corresponding POM (say,
test-group/test-artifact/1.0/test-artifact-1.0.pom). Because of this,
the "stub" artifacts can effectively not be resolved.
I am thinking of extending the "ArtifactStubFactory" class. Next to a
configuration flag to actually create the file on disk, I am proposing
another configuration flag to actually create a corresponding POM file.
By default, it would be false to maintain its current behaviour.
What do you think of this idea?
Cheers,
Maarten
