POM.xml

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
   xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0
   http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
      <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
      <groupId>com.companyname.projectgroup</groupId>
      <artifactId>project</artifactId>
      <version>1.0</version>
      <dependencies>
         <dependency>
            <groupId>junit</groupId>
            <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
            <version>3.8.1</version>
         </dependency>
      </dependencies>  
</project>
  • Now you can see, Maven already added Junit as test framework.
  • By default Maven adds a source file App.java and a test file AppTest.java in its default directory structure discussed in previous chapter.
  • Let's open command console, go the C:\MVN\consumerBanking directory and execute the following mvn command.
C:\MVN\consumerBanking>mvn clean package
  • Maven will start building the project.

  • You've built your project and created final jar file, following are the key learning concepts
  • We give maven two goals, first to clean the target directory (clean) and then package the project build output as jar(package).
  • Packaged jar is available in consumerBanking\target folder as consumerBanking-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar.
  • Test reports are available in consumerBanking\target\surefire-reports folder.
  • Maven compiled source code file(s) and then test source code file(s).
  • Then Maven run the test cases.
  • Finally Maven created the package.
  • Now open command console, go the
  • C:\MVN\consumerBanking\target\classes directory and execute the following java command.
C:\MVN\consumerBanking\target\classes>java com.companyname.bank.App

Util.java

package com.companyname.bank;

public class Util 
{
   public static void printMessage(String message){

public class App 
{
    public static void main( String[] args )
    
    {
        Util.printMessage("Hello wikitechy!");
    }
}
  • Now open command console, go the C:\MVN\consumerBanking directory and execute the following mvn command.
C:\MVN\consumerBanking>mvn clean compile
  • After Maven build is successful, go the C:\MVN\consumerBanking\target\classes directory and execute the following java command.
C:\MVN\consumerBanking\target\classes>java -cp com.companyname.bank.App
