Hello Sebb, mvn help:describe -Dplugin=org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin -Ddetail=true will show you the goals and their options. For the command line parameter version of the options refer to e.g.: http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-surefire-plugin/test-mojo.html#skip There you see, that <skip> translates to maven.test.skip on the command line.
