The quickbutton sets -Dtest=skip instead of -Dmaven.test.skip=true. This is not working as expected as the testrunner is still trying to run the tests and then complains afterwards that there were no tests: [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] BUILD FAILURE [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] No tests were executed! (Set -DfailIfNoTests=false to ignore this error.) The button should set the -Dmaven.test.skip=true option instead.
