I've noticed this too. But when thinking about it, I *really* do want my tests to be working. So its important to fix them. One case where this is a problem is in integration tests and someone plays with the data in databases. Whole tests start failing. And then someone wants to cut a release ... So we work around this issue by doing -Dmaven.test.failure.ignore=true which still runs the tests, so the test-jar gets built, but ignores all failures. Dont do it often, but its in the toolbox for when you do. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
