This document provides instructions for setting up Maven on your machine and creating a sample Java project using Maven. It outlines downloading and installing the necessary software, including Java JDK, Maven, Eclipse, and Firefox. It then provides steps to set environment variables and verify the Maven installation. Finally, it demonstrates how to generate a sample project using Maven archetypes and import the project into Eclipse, and discusses configuring tests and running them with Maven.

5. Creating a Java project using
Execute the following mvn command:
C:MVN>mvn archetype:generate
→DgroupId=com
→DartifactId=application
→DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-quickstart
→DinteractiveMode=false

11. Running tests in parallel
Using JUnit

12. Running test
Run tests with:
mvn surefire:test
Run test with FailSafe
mvn failsafe:test-integration
mvn failsafe:verify
Run a single test
mvn -Dtest=Login test
Run a set of methods in a single test
mvn -Dtest=LoginTest#Log_In test
Generate reports and site
mvn site
Skip tests with SureFire
- go to pom.xml and add: <skip>true</skip> to configuration tag specific to SureFire

13. Good Luck!
