Thanks for chiming in, though I'm not sure what that means in regards to whether or not I'm running the build correctly.  Is it your understanding that I should be able to run the build without error if I use both of those skip flags?  Does the syntax that I showed in my original post demonstrate correct usage of those flags?  I'm not a regular Maven user and I've never heard of surefire today, and the docs don't really show a full example of running the build while skipping the tests so I'm unclear on the proper way to do it.  

Of course, ultimately, I need to know why the tests are failing and hanging as well.  But for now, just trying to get the build to run!

On a related note, some runs of the test suite after my original post gave me these failures additional:

[ERROR] testBinary(io.undertow.websockets.core.protocol.WebSocket13ServerTestCase)  Time elapsed: 0.02 s  <<< ERROR!
java.lang.IllegalStateException: ChannelPipeline does not contain an HttpRequestEncoder or HttpClientCodec

[ERROR] testCloseFrame(io.undertow.websockets.core.protocol.WebSocket08ServerTest)  Time elapsed: 0.013 s  <<< ERROR!
java.lang.IllegalStateException: ChannelPipeline does not contain an HttpRequestEncoder or HttpClientCodec

It really is sort of alarming the number of intermittent issues I'm having with the test suite.

Thanks!

Betreff: [undertow-dev] Building Undertow
 
I'm trying to build Undertow using the (sparse) instructions here and having a heck of a time.  


cd undertow && mvn install  

So firstly, I'm not super familiar with Maven (not a full time java dev) but when I skip the tests, the build fails.  Here is the note in the docs, which is confusing for a couple reasons:

If you attempt to build with -Dmaven.test.skip=true for your initial build the build will fail, as the core test jar will not be built and the Servlet module has a test scoped dependency on this jar. Either use -DskipTests, or just let the tests run the first time.  
  • First it says the build will fail if the tests are skipped, but then seems to imply that I can work around this by setting some system properties.  
  • What is the difference between the maven.test.skip property and the skiptests property?  Do I need both of them?  
If I try to run the build like so (Using Maven 3.6.3 and java 11) using a fresh clone of the Undertow repo with the "master" branch checked out:

mvn install -Dmaven.test.skip=true -DskipTests

I get this build failure still:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project undertow-servlet: Could not resolve dependencies for project io.undertow:undertow-servlet:jar:2.1.4.Final-SN
APSHOT: Could not find artifact io.undertow:undertow-core:jar:tests:2.1.4.Final-SNAPSHOT -> [Help 1]

So, I'm not sure what to do there.  The docs state that setting those JVM args is an alternative to running the tests but it doesn't work.

Now, the first thing I tried was actually just to let the tests run, but this proved to be even more troublesome than skipping the tests!  I get tons of test failures and other errors and the behavior differs whether I'm using Java 8 or Java 11 (fun!) and the tests usually just hang and won't complete.  

When I run the build (with tests) on Java 1.8.0_161 they hang on this test and never finish.

[INFO] Running io.undertow.server.handlers.ReceiverTestCase

When I run the build (with tests) on Java 11.0.6, I get the following errors:

[ERROR] testSpnegoSuccess(io.undertow.server.security.SpnegoDigestAuthenticationTestCase)  Time elapsed: 0.01 s  <<< FAILURE!
java.lang.AssertionError: Expected header not found.

[ERROR] testSpnegoSuccess(io.undertow.server.security.SpnegoBasicAuthenticationTestCase)  Time elapsed: 0 s  <<< FAILURE!
java.lang.AssertionError: Expected header not found.

[ERROR] testSpnegoSuccess(io.undertow.server.security.SpnegoAuthenticationTestCase)  Time elapsed: 0 s  <<< FAILURE!
java.lang.AssertionError: expected:<401> but was:<403>

[ERROR] testRegexPattern(io.undertow.server.handlers.SameSiteCookieHandlerTestCase)  Time elapsed: 0.027 s  <<< ERROR!
javax.net.ssl.SSLException: Connection reset
 
And then it hangs on the same test case that Java 8 hangs on (io.undertow.server.handlers.ReceiverTestCase)

What does it take to get a local build of Undertow working?  If it matters, I'm trying to build on a Windows 7 machine.

Thanks!
