Your suggestion

	mvn clean install -Pdistribution -DskipTests=true

aka,

	mvn --activate-profiles distribution -DskipTests=true clean install 

, where

	-DskipTests


*compiles* the tests, but does *not* run them,


FAILd here as well.

That, as well as my original usage,

	mvn --activate-profiles distribution -Dmaven.test.skip=true clean install

, where

	-Dmaven.test.skip=true

*neither* compiles, nor runs, tests,

_should_ BOTH work :-/

On a whim, noting in

	cat .travis.yml
		...
		export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xms512m -Xmx1536m"
		...

I explicitly set

	export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xms1024m -Xmx3072m"

and ...

... bingo!

both forms work.  in particular, with my orig

	-Dmaven.test.skip=true

noting,

If this^ is a build-time memory alloc issue, I would've expected to see some form of heap memory warning/error.

I don't see a thing.

Don't know if that's due to wrong log, loglevel, or a bug.  And, no clue why tests start building, ignoring the -D*, when MAVEN_OPTS is unset / @ default.

in any case, sorted for now.
