In context with Maven 2.0.4, putting both plugin executions in the process-resources phase did not work- they may have been executed in the wrong order and so the build failed, as Selenium had not yet been unzipped when antrun tried to copy the files. Moving the dependency-maven-plugin execution to generate-sources fixed the problem, but this should not have been necessary.
Maven's primary goal is to allow a developer to comprehend the complete state of a development effort in the shortest period of time. In order to attain this goal there are several areas of concern that Maven attempts to deal with:
- Making the build process easy
- Providing a uniform build system
- Providing quality project information
- Providing guidelines for best practices development
- Allowing transparent migration to new features
