Using with integration-test phase

[Michael Pratt]

Hi all,

We have a suite of Groovy scripts that we use an integration tests (they actually call out to our microservices and validate responses). I have a case where I need to execute a Groovy script as part of the integration-test phase instead of testCompile. The reason is we have some pre- and post-integration steps that setup 3rd party dependencies like Kafka, and when the script runs during testCompile those dependencies are not available.

Here is my plugin definition for gmavenplus-plugin. This is mostly verbatim from the sample, except I've added the <phase> tag, which doesn't seem to help.

               <plugin>
                  <groupId>org.codehaus.gmavenplus</groupId>
                  <artifactId>gmavenplus-plugin</artifactId>
                  <version>1.5</version>
                  <executions>
                     <execution>
                        <phase>integration-test</phase>
                        <goals>
                           <goal>testCompile</goal>
                        </goals>
                     </execution>
                  </executions>
                  <configuration>
                     <testSources>
                        <testSource>
                           <directory>${project.basedir}/src/${test.base.dir}/groovy</directory>
                           <includes>
                              <include>**/*.groovy</include>
                           </includes>
                        </testSource>
                     </testSources>
                  </configuration>
               </plugin>

Is it possible to only have this execute during integration-test phase? Everything I've tried still executes the scripts during compile which will always fail in my case.

Thanks!

Mike

Sorry for the late response, this got lost in my inbox.  I assume you're using failsafe plugin and invoking mvn  verify, install, or deploy?
