Maven: Unit test not running

Question

I have a problem running unit test of a maven project.

The project used to be one pom. I split it up into three poms.

My maven is like this. There are three of these poms which looks all like this.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
     xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

<groupId>com.mycompany</groupId>
<artifactId>client</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>

<parent>
    <groupId>com.mycompany</groupId>
    <artifactId>base-pom</artifactId>
    <relativePath>../../build/shared/pom.xml</relativePath>
    <version>1.0</version>
</parent>

<build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>2.3.2</version>
            <configuration>
                <source>1.6</source>
                <target>1.6</target>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>

        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>2.12</version>
            <configuration>
                <includes>
                    <include>**/*Test.java</include>
                </includes>
                <forkMode>never</forkMode>
                <useFile>false</useFile>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

<dependencies>
   ....
</dependencies>

The top level pom is:

<groupId>com.mycompany</groupId>
<artifactId>project</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
<packaging>pom</packaging>

<modules>
    <module>modules/shared</module>
    <module>modules/client</module>
    <module>modules/adapter</module>
</modules>

The parent POM, which is shared by all the modules are:

<groupId>com.mycompany</groupId>
<artifactId>base-pom</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
<packaging>pom</packaging>

<parent>
    <groupId>com.mycompany</groupId>
    <artifactId>mycompany-parent</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.8</version>
</parent>

<properties>
    <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
    <project.reporting.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.reporting.sourceEncoding>
</properties>

<build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>2.3.2</version>
            <configuration>
                <source>1.6</source>
                <target>1.6</target>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

<dependencyManagement>
  ...
</dependencyManagement>

It uses to work when there is just one POM. What is the problem of this?

Many thanks

can we get the relevant maven output as well as the command line options? — Woot4Moo, May 04 '12 at 13:06

I would recommend to restructure your projects structure to represent the real layout of the project. I can recommend to reading this entry here on SO
