Changes in resource files not picked up

I'm not seeing this. I've created a properties file under src/test/resources t in a project, and created a test that reads it.

Changes are being picked up when I use "Run/Run As.../Maven install", and also when I run the test class using Eclipse's test runner.

I'm guessing that I'm missing something? Is there a simple way to reproduce this issue?

Hi Rich,

You could try this:

• Create a new eclipse workspace
• checkout http://svn.xwiki.org/svnroot/xwiki/platform/core/trunk/xwiki-rendering/ locally (I do with my command line svn client)
• in eclipse, import all modules under that directory
• go in xwiki-rendering-tests/ and try running RenderingTests in the eclipse junit testrunner. It fails for me (it used to work). That's a first issue but different from this one maybe
• if you get the 700+ tests to work fine then go in rendering-tests/src/test/resources and modify one of the *.test files and try running RenderingTests again. It should still work fine even if you made a breaking change

Thanks for working on this. I've been struggling for hours since yesterday on trying to get an environment working again with m2eclipse. I tried the eclipse rollback feature and it didn't help. Not sure what's going on.

I've set up my environment as described in http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Building, but I'm not having much luck building this (unresolved artifact com.xpn.xwiki.platform:xwiki:pom:21-SNAPSHOT)

I'll try again tomorrow when I have some more time.

Rich, it may be that you had some bad luck since we've released 3 versions of XWiki yesterday and it's possible that with pom juggling our CI didn't have the time to upload some artifacts to our custom repo. You have added the xwiki remore repo to your settings right?

I can see it's there:
http://maven.xwiki.org/snapshots/com/xpn/xwiki/platform/xwiki/21-SNAPSHOT/

I'm on skype (vmassol) or xwiki's irc (irc.freenode.net, #xwiki) if you need help.

Thanks

Rich, this look like the same issue as MNGECLIPSE-823 and you need to talk to Igor about it.

OK, it builds today. I was able to reproduce your problem, and in fact I can now reproduce it by adding the following to a simple project (this is in your pom.xml):

<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-resources-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>testResources</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>

When this is present test resource changes are not picked up, when it is removed they are.

What is the intent of this? There is no phase specified...

Hi Rich,

Cool to see you could reproduce it!

This is used to copy test resources files (this is required since the packaging is pom and the pom lifecycle doesn't have the resource plugin mapped by default). There's no phase specified since I want to use the default phase specified in the TestResourcesMojo.java class (ie. process-test-resources). If you run it on the command line you'll see it says:

[INFO] [resources:testResources {execution: default}]

which shows it's executed.

You can also try to comment out this plugin and you'll see the test resources are not copied anymore.
