Maven test worked fine on my laptop but not in the pipeline

[Sean Su]

I have a simple JUnit test case that load the Liquibase changelog originating in the src/test/resources folder. As you can imagine, the file will be in the target/test-classes folder after the compilation. The test case worked perfectly on my laptop. However, it failed as Liquibase could not find the file. The only thing I can think of is that the target/test-classes somehow is not on the classpath in the pipeline environment. Is that even possible? My pipeline configuration is very simple: 

image: maven:latest

pipelines:
  default:

    - step:
        name: Run Maven Tests
        script:
          # Step 2: Maven commands
          - echo "start of maven tests."
          - mvn clean test
          - echo "end of maven tests."

Hi Sean,

The pipeline build directory should be the clone directory of the repository. If it's unable to find the target/test-classes folder then I'd suggest running an ls -l command in your script to print your folder structure and verify if it's there or not.

Sometimes you may also have to add prefixes to paths such as ./target/test-classes

Please try this and let me know how it goes.

Cheers!
