Maven Release Build Skip test case is fails - Jenkins

Question

I am facing issue with Jenkins build using maven release build. The reason is for test case is failing. I am trying to skip the test cases but, its failing.

Screen shot of my Jenkins setting:-

Log :-

    ationTest): org.springframework.mock.jndi.SimpleNamingContext cannot be cast to org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource
  testReadNotCancelled(uk.com.xxx.yyy.sdp.bizservice.user.domain.dao.UserDaoIntegrationTest): org.springframework.mock.jndi.SimpleNamingContext cannot be cast to org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource
  testReadNotCancelledNullReturn(uk.com.xxx.yyy.sdp.bizservice.user.domain.dao.UserDaoIntegrationTest): org.springframework.mock.jndi.SimpleNamingContext cannot be cast to org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource
  testSaveUserPasswordReset(uk.com.xxx.yyy.sdp.bizservice.user.domain.dao.UserDaoIntegrationTest): org.springframework.mock.jndi.SimpleNamingContext cannot be cast to org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource
  testSaveUserPasswordChange(uk.com.xxx.yyy.sdp.bizservice.user.domain.dao.UserDaoIntegrationTest): org.springframework.mock.jndi.SimpleNamingContext cannot be cast to org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource

    Tests run: 232, Failures: 1, Errors: 135, Skipped: 3

    [ERROR] There are test failures.

Is there anything I am missing, please suggest. Any advice would be helpful. Please help me on this.

Answer 1

This worked for me.

--batch-mode  -DskipTests -Darguments=-DskipTests  release:prepare

Answer 2

The command line you are (were ?) looking for is :

release:prepare release:perform "-Darguments=-DskipTests=true" (compile tests, non execution)

or

release:prepare release:perform "-Darguments=-Dmaven.test.skip=true" (do not even compile tests)

This plugin forks Maven (at least to run the tests), so you have to use

"-Darguments=-DskipTests=true -Dproperty1=value -Dproperty2=anothervalue" 

to pass arguments to the forked process.

Answer 3

The parameter is -DskipTests=true. You didn't provide a value...
