Run a Single Test Method with Maven

Run a single test method with maven

To run a single test method in Maven, you need to provide the command as:

mvn test -Dtest=TestCircle#xyz test

where TestCircle is the test class name and xyz is the test method.

Wild card characters also work; both in the method name and class name.

If you're testing in a multi-module project, specify the module that the test is in with -pl <module-name>.

For integration tests use it.test=... option instead of test=...:

mvn -pl <module-name> -Dit.test=TestCircle#xyz integration-test

How to run a specific maven test class from the terminal?

mvn -Dtest=TestCircle test

Can't run single test method with maven

The syntax above is only supported for Maven Surefire version 2.7.3+

Make sure you're using the correct version of the plugin.

Maven surefire plugin DOES NOT run single test, out of many

The surefire plugin (by default) will run only tests with the following name syntax ...

"**/Test*.java" - includes all of its subdirectories and all Java filenames that start with "Test".
"**/*Test.java" - includes all of its subdirectories and all Java filenames that end with "Test".
"**/*Tests.java" - includes all of its subdirectories and all Java filenames that end with "Tests".
"**/*TestCase.java" - includes all of its subdirectories and all Java filenames that end with "TestCase".

Maven run command for specific test suite

This cannot be done in the way you describe it.

test is a phase and as such, part of the standard lifecycle. Calling mvn test does not only run tests, but executes the phases before test as well.

The standard lifecycle also offers phases for integration tests, esp. integration-test. Integration tests are usually put into src/test as well and distinguished by a naming convention. But beware: Calling mvn integration-test will call all previous phases (including test, compileetc.) as well.

How to run single test from test class scala?

and we have another command for running one test from testing class and ignoring another ones?

That should be possible, but using ScalaTest with maven, or ScalaTest with sbt.
