Skip a specific test class during maven verify phase

Question

I have several test classes annotated with @RunWith and @ContextConfiguration. I use the following dependencies in my maven SpringBoot project:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.springframework.batch</groupId>
  <artifactId>spring-batch-test</artifactId>
  <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
  <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-test</artifactId>
  <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

<dependency>
  <groupId>junit</groupId>
  <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
  <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

and when I run mvn clean verify it executes all my test classes.

Now I have a specific test class that I want to ignore during the verify phase.

I tried to annotate it with @ConditionalOnProperty, so at the end the class is as following:

@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@ContextConfiguration(classes = { RestTemplate.class, AvailabilityService.class, VerifyService.class,ConfirmService.class })
@ComponentScan(basePackages = "it.alpitour")
@TestPropertySource("classpath:application-test.properties")
@ConditionalOnProperty("test.api.real.run")
public class ToIgnoreTest {

so I have added a property inside my application-test.properties file:

test.api.real.run=false

but the test is still executed and not ignored, during the verify phase.

How can I skip it?

Thanks

edit:

I prefer not to use @Ignore because I need at some point to run that specific test manually. What I just need is to exclude that one when all the other tests are running.

Name the tests according to naming schema like unit tests `*Test.java` and integration tests like `*IT.java` ... — khmarbaise, Aug 13 '20 at 13:40

You can use the annotation @ignore on your test class if you are using Junit 4 or else you could use the command as follows :

mvn -Dtest=\!YourTest* install

but I think since you are using springboot and not spring the better answer would be : how to run/turn off selective tests based on profiles in spring boot

Thanks but I cannot edit the command I use to run the tests, I'd prefer to work via code in this case – Briston12 Aug 13 '20 at 12:41
@Briston12 yeah i figured, I have updated the answer. I havent' tried this in springboot. – Ananthapadmanabhan Aug 13 '20 at 12:43
thanks again, I thought about `@Ignore` but at some point I need to run that test manually, so I cannot totally ignore it like that – Briston12 Aug 13 '20 at 12:46

ok great, the `@IfProfileValue` made the trick! Thanks for posting that answer – Briston12 Aug 13 '20 at 12:49
