M2 multi-project site build is broken

Hi,

I don't know if anyone else noticed this, but the mvn site keeps on
getting worse. It first started out with the following phenomenon:
during site build, for each project _all_ the projects were iterated,
usually saying
[INFO] No goals needed for project - skipping
Then, we started using xmlbeans and it started doing xmlbeans:xmlbeans
for each project. And now, it executes _all_ the tests of _all_ project
for _each_ project. Well, you can imagine that this is pretty much
undoable for a project like ours with 150+ modules.

Here some sample outputs from the attached project (1 parent, 2 modules,
1 test per module)

mvn clean site | grep Running | wc -l

6
---> this means the two tests are executed 3 times each!!

mvn clean site | grep xmlbeans | wc -l

29
---> this means, xmlbeans is being executed 26 times, 9 times per project!!!

Hello? Is anyone _using_ maven 2 & site generation? This situation is
that it is becoming totally unusable. The problem is, I don't even know
where to report the bug, because it seems to be a combination of bugs.

regards,

Stefan Seidel

P.S.: I have removed the attached project, to see whether this is
causing the apache mail server to reject my mail. You can find it at

This sounds like something to report in JIRA for the xmlbeans plugin.

Ok, but what about the Surefire tests being run way too often? Is this
not a more general error?

It might be so, but the title of your mail "M2 multi-project site build
is broken" is not going to attract people who knows about running tests...

We use XML beans but we use plugin management in the main pom.xml, the:

<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>xmlbeans-maven-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>

for the few modules that actually need the create our xml bean.
Are you doing that?

Also, we group our xmlbean modules together and do not run them everytime we
build unless there is a change to the code.
Takes way too long otherwise.
