Description

$ mvn help:describe -Dplugin=compiler -Ddetail -Dgoal=testCompile

I want to see expression of the parameters if there is.

currently it's

    skip
      Set this to 'true' to bypass unit tests entirely. Its use is NOT
      RECOMMENDED, but quite convenient on occasion.
      Deprecated. No reason given

the description in the online document is better:

skip:
Set this to 'true' to bypass unit tests entirely. Its use is NOT RECOMMENDED, but quite convenient on occasion.

    * Type: boolean
    * Since: 2.0
    * Required: No
    * Expression: ${maven.test.skip}

It will be very handy if I want to pass paramater values from command line, I don't want to check the oneline document every time.

The code is there for this, but they are coming as null. This may be a problem with the plugin tools, but upgrading didn't seem to help. Needs more investigation.
