Unknown lifecycle phase "–-DskipTests=true" for Amazon Device Farm while Maven package

I am trying to package sample-appium-test code from AWS Github. https://github.com/awslabs/aws-device-farm-appium-tests-for-sample-app

According to the document of Amazon, I have to package it with this command:

mvn clean package –-DskipTests=true

After that, I'm got this error

[INFO] BUILD FAILURE

What should I do to fix this problem? Thanks you

I had a similar issue. It works when we use install instead of pkg

mvn clean install -DskipTests

here is the link for your reference. http://maven.apache.org/plugins-archives/maven-surefire-plugin-2.12.4/examples/skipping-test.html

Try mvn clean package –DskipTests=true, with a single '-'.

I believe it's a single '-' on OS X and '--' on Linux.
