The SeaLights Maven plugin is designed to wrap the entire process (Build Scan + Test Listener functions) into the Maven lifecycle, allowing a seamless integration with the build tool.
This solution uses the build scanner .jar file as well as a JSON configuration file. Once the jar is executed specifying the configuration file, the pom.xml files of the Maven project are altered to incorporate the SeaLights plugin. This can be reversed using another CLI command.
Please refer to the dedicated page Recommended - Automatic configuration of Maven via a JSON file to proceed with the integration.
Legacy integration method
There is another method kept for backward compatibility (Legacy - Defining a Sealights profile in the pom.xml file) that includes an example which needs to be defined manually within the selected pom.xml files.
If you're onboarding a new application please avoid this method.

- Surefire - version 2.8 and above
