Maven run "dependency:tree" at start of "test" phase

Question

I need to get the "dependency:tree" goal output from Maven at the start of the "test" phase, to help debug an issue for which I need to know what versions of everything are being used.

In Ant it would have been easy, I've looked through the Maven docs and numerous answers on here but still can't figure it out, surely it's not that hard?

Answer 1

This will output the test dependency tree:

mvn test dependency:tree -DskipTests=true
