Description

• We have a lot of projects in our CI system (Jenkins) where we run mvn clean deploy site-deploy.
• Because of this, we do not repeat test execution again during phase site by defining the reportSet to include report-only.
• However, report-only does invoke the phase validate again which will execute some lengthy enforcer checks.
• I created a clone of maven-surefire where I did redefine report-only to not fork the lifecyle and have a small integration-test project https://github.com/mfriedenhagen/pastebin/tree/surefire-reportonly-test which will show the issue:
• Running mvn -e will produce the following output:
