August Shi commented on MNG-6265:
---------------------------------

Thank you for pointing out the --builder option. We implemented a custom 
Builder and it seems to work for our use case; we can run modules for testing 
in an order different from the reactor order. The printing of modules is still 
in the reactor order, but it is something we can work on later.

> We have a use case for controlling the reactor order in Maven, specifically 
> for running tests on Travis. The common pattern is to run "mvn install 
> -DskipTests; mvn test". After modules are installed (in the default order), 
> the modules can be run in any order during testing, e.g., running the failed 
> modules first, as in -Dsurefire.runOrder=failedfirst for Surefire.
> Would this feature be useful for others? I am attaching a *draft* patch that 
> implements this feature by modifying DefaultMaven.java. I see no clean way of 
> implementing this feature through an extension, unless some new callback, 
> e.g., afterProjectsOrdered, is implemented first. Would it be worthwhile to 
> improve this draft?
> One can test the feature by applying the patch, building Maven, and running 
> tests with the modules in a random order like this:
> $ mvn -DdistributionTargetDir=$(pwd)/apache-maven-3.5.x-SNAPSHOT clean 
> install -DskipTests
> $ apache-maven-3.5.x-SNAPSHOT/bin/mvn test -Dmaven.project.order.file=<(ls -d 
> maven* | shuf)
