In my Maven build, I have a small block of Ant code that needs to run right before the Surefire kicks in to perform a few configurations.
The code is executed with antrun, but I can't get antrun to be executed right before Surefire.
Here is the relevant section of the output of my build:
[INFO] --- maven-compiler-plugin:3.1:testCompile (default-testCompile) @ com...tests ---
[INFO] Changes detected - recompiling the module!
[INFO] Compiling 7 source files to C:\...\com...tests\target\test-classes
[INFO]
[INFO] --- maven-surefire-plugin:2.16:test (default-test) @ com...tests ---
[INFO] Surefire report directory: C:\...\com...tests\target\surefire-reports
Basically I need antrun to execute between maven-compiler-plugin:3.1:testCompile and maven-surefire-plugin:2.16:test .
I tried binding the antrun to the test phase and place it before the surefire plugin in the POM file, but it always executes after the Surefire plugin. I also tried to configure it to run in the testCompile phase, and place it after the maven-compiler-plugin plugin, but no success either.. it executes after surefire.
Does anyone know how to get it to execute in between these two??
Thank you!

You can execute the antrun plugin in process-test-classes life-cycle phase which is just between test-compile and test
