Overview

Maven commands are used to build software with the Apache Maven build tool.

Default Post-Processing

Maven commands apply maven post-processing to their output by default, in order to capture common warning and error messages. The processor searches for messages from both Maven itself and from JUnit.

Locating Maven

The maven binary is located using the following algorithm:

• If the command's custom maven executable field is set, its value is used.
• If a property named maven.bin is defined, its value is used.
• Otherwise, maven is assumed to be in the PATH (as maven.bat on Windows, or plain maven on other systems).

Note that your pulse™ server may locate maven via resource auto-discovery and set up an appropriate resource for you. To make use of the discovered version of maven add this resource as a requirement.
