> I have a module in a folder called "tests"
> In the parent folder I put a pom with:
> <module>test</module>
> i.e. the folder name does not actually exist and the error received is:
> [ERROR] The build could not read 1 project -> [Help 1]
> [ERROR]   The project  
> (/Users/max/Documents/code/jbosstools/modular_build/test) has 1 error
> [ERROR]     Non-parseable POM 
> /Users/max/Documents/code/jbosstools/modular_build/test: only whitespace 
> content allowed before start tag and not [ (position: START_DOCUMENT seen 
> [... @1:1) -> [Help 2]
> [ERROR] 
> [ERROR] To see the full stack trace of the errors, re-run Maven with the -e 
> switch.
> [ERROR] Re-run Maven using the -X switch to enable full debug logging.
> [ERROR] 
> [ERROR] For more information about the errors and possible solutions, please

> I would say it would make better sense to check if the file actually exists 
> and report the file as not there instead of a parse error which send me on to 
> a hunt for a typo in tests/pom.xml (since I didn't spot the missing 's' for a 
> while :)
