Unable to run Cucumber tests from maven

Question

My Maven Project Structure is

The project runs well If I try to run it through eclipse as JUnitTest (CucumberRunnerTest.java).

But if I try executing it through maven then I get the below error:

The pom is as below:

Feature: Navigating into ericsson.com and verify text

  In order to verify tags
  I open browser
  and I navigate to ericsson.com
  I verify the search text.

You can implement missing steps with the snippets below:

@Given("^I go to \"(.*?)\" on \"(.*?)\"$")
public void i_go_to_on(String arg1, String arg2) throws Throwable {
// Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
throw new PendingException();
}

@When("^I click on \"(.*?)\"$")
public void i_click_on(String arg1) throws Throwable {
// Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
throw new PendingException();
}

@Then("^I verify for \"(.*?)\" against \"(.*?)\"$")
public void i_verify_for_against(String arg1, String arg2) throws Throwable {
// Write code here that turns the phrase above into concrete actions
throw new PendingException();
}

where as I have implemented this steps in Search_Text.java.

IF I use maven-compiler plugin and run it through maven I get package cucumber.api.junit.Cucumber does not exists!! ( below is the pluggin added in POM)

   <plugin>
   <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>

        <version>3.1</version>

        <configuration>

          <source>1.7</source>

            <target>1.7</target>
<includes>
<include>**/*Test.java</include>
</includes>
        </configuration>

    </plugin>
    <plugin>

As --glue you should specify the package name of your java test classes
