The Apache Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the Apache Maven Invoker Plugin, version 2.0.0.

The Invoker Plugin is used to run a set of Maven projects. The plugin can determine whether each project execution is successful, and optionally can verify the output generated from a given project execution.

This plugin is in particular handy to perform integration tests for other Maven plugins. The Invoker Plugin can be employed to run a set of test projects that have been designed to assert certain features of the plugin under test.

You should specify the version in your project’s plugin configuration:

1
2
3
4
5

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-invoker-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>2.0.0</version>
</plugin>

Important Note: This Release is intended for the bug fix MINVOKER-187 and in this relationship is was necessary to upgrade the JDK minimum to JDK 1.6. This was the reason for the version upgrade to 2.0.0.
