scala - How to run tests with excluded tags in scalatest from maven? -

i've yet find answer in poms have:

<plugin>     <groupid>org.scalatest</groupid>     <artifactid>scalatest-maven-plugin</artifactid>     <version>1.0</version>     <configuration>         <tagstoexclude>             testtag         </tagstoexclude>         ... 

and want way run tests tagged testtag. i've tried running

mvn test -dtagstoinclude=testtag 

but because testtag excluded in poms, tests end being skipped. i've tried resetting pom properties:

mvn test -dtagstoexclude=none -dtagstoinclude=testtag 

but overwriting doesn't work , of tests skipped yet again.

this works me, add profile tagstoexclude property:

<profiles>     <profile>         <id>default</id>         <activation>             <activebydefault>true</activebydefault>         </activation>         <properties>             <tagstoexclude>testtag</tagstoexclude>         </properties>     </profile> </profiles> <plugin> <groupid>org.scalatest</groupid>         <artifactid>scalatest-maven-plugin</artifactid>         <version>1.0</version>         <configuration>             <tagstoexclude>${tagstoexclude}</tagstoexclude> 

now can run command , works:

mvn test -dtagstoexclude=none -dtagstoinclude=testtag
