• Maven, version 3+
• Java JDK 1.8
• This settings.xml in your /.m2 directory

This will build, unit test, and package the whole project (all of the sub-modules). The artifact will be generated in: target

$ mvn clean install

Unit tests

This will run all tests in the project (and sub-modules).

$ mvn test

If you want to remote debug a single java unit test (default port is 5005):

$ cd core
$ mvn test -Dtest=<<YourTest>> -Dmaven.surefire.debug

Integration tests In addition to the unit tests, there are integration tests in the core project.

$ mvn verify -DrunITs

To run a single integration test:

$ mvn verify -DrunITs -Dit.test=<<YourIT>>

To run a single integration test in debug mode (for remote debugging in an IDE) on the default port of 5005:

$ mvn verify -DrunITs -Dit.test=<<YourIT>> -Dmaven.failsafe.debug
