Testing/Development
===================


This should be used by default if you're using the latest SNAPSHOT of parent pom on master, so a simple "mvn clean verify"     should be enough to build against this new target platform.
You can try it out and use it directly like this:

    $ mvn clean verify -Dtpc.version=4.40.0.Beta1

For advanced usage and help (using in IDE, building a mirror locally, using a zip...), plese read https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-devdoc/blob/master/building/target_platforms/target_platforms_for_consumers.md
