Description

The TestGetMojo unit test of this plugin fail for me on Windows with

org.apache.maven.plugin.MojoExecutionException: Couldn't download artifact: Unable to download the artifact from any repository

The root cause is an IOException at AbstractWagon line 203:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: [snip]maven-dependency-plugin\target\unit-tests\markers\org.apache.maven:maven-model:jar:2.0.9.tmp (The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect)

The StubArtifactRepository is trying to create a file with a colon in it, and Windows doesn't like that.

See attached patch for a possible fix. It might be better to fix StubArtifactRepository in the maven-plugin-testing-harness but I'm a little nervous of breaking other plugin builds.
