Description

Create a plugin that will allow verifying existence and contents of files and directories. It could be used when performing integration tests, for example when writing m2 plugins. It could be later on expanded for other types of tests too.

The way it'll work is that it'll have a configuration similar to:

<verifications>
<files>
<file>
<location>${basedir}/target/clover/clover.db</location>
<contains>[enter a regexp here - This is optional]</contains>
<test>exist (default)|notfound</test>
</file>
<file>[...]
</files>
</verifications>

This file will be called verifications.xml (for example) in user's projects and the plugin will look for it by default in src/test/verifier/verifications.xml

This plugin will be bound to an integration testing phase that Brett will add to maven-core/src/main/resources/META-INF/plexus/components.xml.
