Skipping tests in Maven

Sometimes, we need to skip the tests while executing the maven goals. We can skip the tests in 2 ways.

• Using command line parameter
• Using surefire plugin configuration in POM file

We can use below command to skip the tests

 
mvn install -DskipTests

Or you can also configure Surefire plugin in POM file as depicted below.

<configuration>
<skipTests>true</skipTests>
</configuration>
