<h3 id="maven2">Maven 2</h3>
<p>Maven 2 supports TestNG out of the box without the need to download any additional plugins <em>(other than TestNG itself)</em>. It is recommended that you use version 2.4 or above of the Surefire plugin (this is the case in all recent versions of Maven).</p>
<p>
You can find the full instructions on the <a href="http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-surefire-plugin/">Maven Surefire Plugin web site</a>. There are also <a href="http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-surefire-plugin/examples/testng.html">TestNG-specific instructions</a>.
</p>
<h4>Specifying your pom.xml</h4>
The dependency in your project should look like the following:
<pre class="brush: xml">
<dependency>
<groupId>org.testng</groupId>
<artifactId>testng</artifactId>
<version>6.8</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
</pre>
<h4>Sample Report</h4>
<p>
A sample surefire report with TestNG can be found <a href="samplereport/index.html">here</a>.

<h3 id="archetype">Maven TestNG Archetype <em>(Martin Gilday)</em></h3>
<p>
Martin Gilday has added a new archetype for Maven2: to create a project using the archetype you simply have to specify my repository and the archetype ID.
</p>
<pre class="brush: text">
mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=org.martingilday -DartifactId=test1 -DarchetypeGroupId=org.martingilday -DarchetypeArtifactId=testng-archetype
-DarchetypeVersion=1.0-SNAPSHOT -DremoteRepositories=http://www.martingilday.org/repository/</pre>
<p>Of course substitute in your own groupId and artifactId.</p>
<p>Don't forget to keep checking back at <a href="http://www.martingilday.org/updates/Maven+TestNG+Archetype">Martin's blog</a> for more updates. </p>

<p>The TestNG Maven plug-in is quite simple and consists of
two goals and a series of optional properties.</p>
<p>Currently the 1.1 version of the plug-in is bundled with
official releases of TestNG. To utilize the plug-in, copy the
<tt>maven-testng-plugin-<version>.jar</tt> to the <tt>$MAVEN_HOME/plugins</tt>
directory.</p>
<p>For the latest version of the plug-in (1.2 as of 12/12/05),
update your <tt>maven.repo.remote</tt> to include <tt>http://www.vanwardtechnologies.com/repository/</tt>
and then issue the following command: <tt>maven plugin:download</tt>. Maven will issue a series of questions,
answer them as follows: <BR>
