I have a simple Maven2 project with tests written for TestNG. When I say mvn test Maven2 compiles my test, but don't run them. I already checked this page: http://maven.apache.org/general.html#test-property-name. This is not my case.

Anybody can help?

My directory structure:

pom.xml
src
  main
    java
      com ...
  test
    java
      com ...
target
  classes <— .class files go there
  test-classes <— .class files with tests go there

This is what I see if I run mvn -X test (end of the log):

...
