[Maven-plugins-developer] RE: Maven plugin for webtest

[Jeffrey D. B. <jb...@wi...>]

Could / Should this convo shift to the maven-plugins-dev list?

I have some ideas/changes to the plugin for post-maven-b7 which would 
allow it to pull the dependant jars down from the repo instead of distributing them 
along with the plugin.  This may allow the use of say SNAPSHOT to use the 
latest webtest jar in the repo.  Then if we can get the latest builds 
automagically poked up to a public repo or something, the plugin ( or at 
least developers ) could always use the latest build.

Also I've toyed with directly using jelly to execute the ant tasks in 
plugin.jelly instead of spawning off a java instance.  Lifted some from 
the latka plugin that does this.  Since ant tasks can be used straight out 
in jelly.
