Description

If i have a parent pom with a profile like this:
<profile>
<id>esb</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>test</name>
<value>true</value>
</property>
</activation>

i could not activate it using either:
<properties>
<test>true</test>
</properties>
or on CLI (mvn -Dtest=true) in the submodule.
