Description

The POM for the maven-plugin module provides a "test-accumulo-maven-plugin" profile for running integration tests on the plugin. The profile activates only when the skipITs property, the same property referenced by the failsafe plugin, is not set.

It should also require that the skipTests property be unset. The skipTests property already controls whether tests are run by the surefire or failsafe plugins, and having the same behavior here would be beneficial. Today, to run mvn install without any tests, you must say mvn -DskipTests -DskipITs install. It should be enough to say mvn -DskipTests install.

The problem is that it doesn't appear that Maven supports this level of logic in its profile activation syntax, at least not in any straightforward manner.
