That is not true. Maven will still compile the test classes, but only if they have changed since the last compilation. To force maven to compile even if there were no changes run a clean first.
Bashar -----Original Message----- From: Kevan Dunsmore [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 30, 2007 3:46 PM To: Maven Users List Subject: Skipping Tests but Still Compiling So I just discovered that if I kick off a build using mvn -Dmaven.test.skip=true install then Maven will not even bother compiling the test classes. Is there any way to force Maven to compile the test classes but not run the tests? Thanks, Kevan.
