clover:save-history

Save a Clover history point.

Mojo Attributes:

  • Requires a Maven 2.0 project to execute.

Required Parameters

Name Type Description
cloverDatabase String The location of the Clover database.
cloverMergeDatabase String The location of the merged clover database to create when running a report in a multimodule build.
historyDir String The location where historical Clover data will be saved.

Note: It's recommended to modify the location of this directory so that it points to a more permanent location as the ${project.build.directory} directory is erased when the project is cleaned.

Default value is ${project.build.directory}/clover/history.
project MavenProject The Maven project instance for the executing project.

Note: This is passed by Maven and must not be configured by the user.

Optional Parameters

Name Type Description
flushInterval int When the Clover Flush Policy is set to "interval" or threaded this value is the minimum period between flush operations (in milliseconds). Default value is 500.
flushPolicy String The Clover flush policy to use. Valid values are directed, interval and threaded. Default value is threaded.
jdk String Whether the Clover instrumentation should use the Clover jdk14 or jdk15 flags to parse sources.
licenseFile String A Clover license file to be used by the plugin. If not specified, the Clover plugin uses a default evaluation license.
licenseLocation String A Clover license file to be used by the plugin. The plugin tries to resolve this parameter first as a resource, then as a URL, and then as a file location on the filesystem.
waitForFlush boolean If true we'll wait 2*flushInterval to ensure coverage data is flushed to the Clover database before running any query on it.

Note: The only use case where you would want to turn this off is if you're running your tests in a separate JVM. In that case the coverage data will be flushed by default upon the JVM shutdown and there would be no need to wait for the data to be flushed. As we can't control whether users want to fork their tests or not, we're offering this parameter to them.

Default value is true.
