Maven Cobertura plugin not generating coverage.xml

Question

I am trying to generate a coverage.xml so that I can reference it in Cobertura plugin of Hudson, but the file is not being created.

I\'ve added the following to my POM

Answer 1

I put the plugin in the build section and it works:

    
        
            org.codehaus.mojo
            cobertura-maven-plugin
            2.5.1
            
                
                    html
                    xml
                
            
        
    

The reporting section and its differences to the plugin section are described here. I don't know if this is a maven [3.0.4] or cobertura-plugin issue.
