Wendy, What I have noticed is that if I go into the sub projects directory and run 'mvn test', the relative paths that are in the tests resolve perfectly. When I run the 'mvn test' from the parent project path, then the relative paths cannot be found. Will the use of the "basedir" property resolve to the subprojects location or the parent projects location?

In addition, you can pass in your own system properties in the <plugin>/<configuration> section. -- Wendy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
