Github user mridulm commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/15553 @srowen -Dmaven.test.skip=true is the documented way in maven to skip test compilation (http://maven.apache.org/surefire/maven-surefire-plugin/examples/skipping-test.html) which we are not honoring in spark build. The more practical reason for supporting it is that the build time almost doubles with test and doc compilation included even if we dont care for them to be generated. Unfortunately, use of profile is the only way to resolve this problem - atleast what I could find in maven documentation/discussions : if there are alternatives, please do let me know.
