Java project reporting configuration
As of version 12 of the organizational POM. A large number of plugins have been configured to reduce the configuration needed for other projects when doing reporting.
Java project pom.xml files would have the following section added to provide the expected reports for each project. It is ordered in that API documentation comes first followed by quality checks and finishing with the cross reference.
<reporting>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-checkstyle-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-pmd-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>findbugs-maven-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-report-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.jacoco</groupId>
<artifactId>jacoco-maven-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-jxr-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</reporting>
At present there is no automated “upgrade” capability to synchronize pom.xml files. Therefore, this needs to be done manually.
Maven plugin projects
For Maven plugin projects, add the following plugin first.
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-plugin-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
This will enable the plugin reports which can be added to site.xml using the following
<menu name="Overview">
<item href="index.html" name="About" />
<item href="plugin-info.html" name="Plugin Documentation" />
</menu>
