             Summary: Maven test failures hide more important errors
                 Key: JENKINS-13678
                 URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-13678
             Project: Jenkins
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: maven2
         Environment: LINUX RHEL 5.7 64 bits
            Reporter: Juan Enriquez de Salamanca


When you have a multi-module maven project, if you get a test failure, it will 
hide maven build errors you get later in the build (these errors are more 
critical than a test failure and hiding them could be a serious problem). In 
this case, the jenkins result would be unstable when it should be failure.

Example:

Project
   - Module A: build ends with test failures.
   - Module B: build ends with build errors (for example in maven, not finding 
a pom dependency)

In this scenario when the build of the whole project ends, the jenkins result 
would be unstable when i think it should be failure.

I have found this bug in versions 1.455 and 1.462
