Build Maven Project Without Running Unit Tests

maven-2, unit-testing

Solution

If you want to skip running and compiling tests:

mvn -Dmaven.test.skip=true install

If you want to compile but not run tests:

mvn install -DskipTests

Problem

How do you build a Maven project without running unit tests? Currently restructuring some code I have for a Servlet and would like to try it out in my web browser (which means running `mvn install` to get the `.war` to upload to Tomcat). I'm fully aware my UNIT tests are failing and I'm fine with that because I will fix it once I have the code the way I want. Can anyone advise?
