resources:testResources

Full name:

org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:2.4.3:testResources

Description:

Copy resources for the test source code to the test output directory.

Attributes:

  • Requires a Maven 2.0 project to be executed.
  • The goal is thread-safe and supports parallel builds.
  • Binds by default to the lifecycle phase: process-test-resources.

Required Parameters

Name Type Since Description
outputDirectory File - The output directory into which to copy the resources.

Optional Parameters

Name Type Since Description
delimiters List 2.4

Set of delimiters for expressions to filter within the resources. These delimiters are specified in the form 'beginToken*endToken'. If no '*' is given, the delimiter is assumed to be the same for start and end.

So, the default filtering delimiters might be specified as:

<delimiters>
  <delimiter>${*}</delimiter>
  <delimiter>@</delimiter>
</delimiters>

Since the '@' delimiter is the same on both ends, we don't need to specify '@*@' (though we can).
encoding String - The character encoding scheme to be applied when filtering resources.
Default value is: ${project.build.sourceEncoding}.
escapeString String 2.3 Expression preceded with the String won't be interpolated \${foo} will be replaced with ${foo}
Default value is: ${maven.resources.escapeString}.
escapeWindowsPaths boolean 2.4 Whether to escape backslashes and colons in windows-style paths.
Default value is: true.
filters List - The list of extra filter properties files to be used along with System properties, project properties, and filter properties files specified in the POM build/filters section, which should be used for the filtering during the current mojo execution.
Normally, these will be configured from a plugin's execution section, to provide a different set of filters for a particular execution. For instance, starting in Maven 2.2.0, you have the option of configuring executions with the id's default-resources and default-testResources to supply different configurations for the two different types of resources. By supplying extraFilters configurations, you can separate which filters are used for which type of resource.
includeEmptyDirs boolean 2.3 Copy any empty directories included in the Ressources.
Default value is: false.
nonFilteredFileExtensions List 2.3 Additionnal file extensions to not apply filtering (already defined are : jpg, jpeg, gif, bmp, png)
overwrite boolean 2.3 Overwrite existing files even if the destination files are newer.
Default value is: false.
useBuildFilters boolean 2.4 If false, don't use the filters specified in the build/filters section of the POM when processing resources in this mojo execution.
See also: ResourcesMojo.buildFilters and ResourcesMojo.filters
Default value is: true.
useDefaultDelimiters boolean 2.4 (no description)
Default value is: true.
