Best way to disable cobertura test for all the child modules from the parent pom

AKIWEB picture AKIWEB · Sep 8, 2013 · Viewed 8.6k times · Source

I am trying to do a maven clean install on my parent pom.xml file by using the below command-

mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip=true -Dmaven.it.skip=true -DcoberturaHaltOnError=false

But somehow everytime, I am always getting the below error-

[INFO] --- cobertura-maven-plugin:2.5.2:check (default) @ tac-core ---
[INFO] Cobertura 1.9.4.1 - GNU GPL License (NO WARRANTY) - See COPYRIGHT file
Cobertura: Loaded information on 237 classes.

[ERROR] com.somehost.core.exception.LockedException failed check. Line coverage rate of 0.0% is below 80.0%

com.somehost.core.msg.client.StoreResponse failed check. Branch coverage rate of 0.0% is below 90.0%

// followed by other errors

I am not sure how to skip this cobertura test in my parent pom.xml file in such a way such that child modules doesn't get failed. From the above error it looks like my core module is getting failed (see my parent pom.xml file below)

Below is my parent pom.xml file-

And after this change, I am running it like this-

mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.skip=true -Dmaven.it.skip=true -DcoberturaHaltOnError=false

And still, I am getting the same error-

Move the plugin with the configuration for its modules to pluginManagement and add the following

<project>
...
 <build>
  <pluginManagement>
   <plugins>
    <!-- put here your original plugin configuration for the children -->
    <plugin>
     <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
     <artifactId>cobertura-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    </plugin>
   </plugins>   
  </pluginManagement>
  <plugins>
   <plugin>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
    <artifactId>cobertura-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.5.2</version>
    <inherited>false</inherited>
    <configuration>
     <skip>true</skip>
    </configuration>
   </plugin>
  </plugins>
</build>

the inherited=false makes it possible to set the configuration only for this project, not those which use it as a parent.
