Answer 2

It depends on maven test plugin that you use. You can try add parameter -Dmaven.test.skip=true to your build configuration.

Answer 3

At the Run configurations there is a Maven Build type of Run configuration. At that you could set up the standard Maven skipTests parameter.

Answer 4

You can put the property maven.test.skip in a profile in your pom. And then you activate this profile in eclipse in the project properties of maven in eclipse.

Answer 5

accordig to maven's document you can write this in you pom.xml:

<project>

<plugins>
  <plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.12</version>
