On a separate yet related note, one of the issues that has clearly emerged
from this discussion is that within the DSpace context the Maven build
framework is being leveraged for two differing uses: development &
installation. On the development side there are strong arguments for having
tests activated by default. On the installation side there are strong
arguments for having tests de-activated by default.
Is there any reason why these two concerns can not be effectively segregated
through the use of "profiles"?
The install profile could be some variation of:
<profile>
<id>profile-install</id>
<activation>
...
</activation>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<skipTests>true</skipTests>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</profile>
And, if necessary, an analogous counterpart could exist for the dev profile.
