Maven test dependency in multi module project
- by user209947
I use maven to build a multi module project. My module 2 depends on Module 1 src at compile scope and module 1 tests in test scope.
Module 2 -
<dependency>
<groupId>blah</groupId>
<artifactId>MODULE1</artifactId>
<version>blah</version>
<classifier>tests</classifier>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
This works fine. Say my module 3 depends on Module1 src and tests at compile time.
Module 3 -
<dependency>
<groupId>blah</groupId>
<artifactId>MODULE1</artifactId>
<version>blah</version>
<classifier>tests</classifier>
<scope>complie</scope>
</dependency>
When I run mvn clean install, my build runs till module 3, fails at module 3 as it couldnt resolve the module 1 test dependency. Then I do a mvn install on module 3 alone, go back and run mvn install on my parent pom to make it build. How can i fix this?
