Required Parameters

Name	Type	Since	Description
generateDirectory	File	-	Folder where generated-source will be created (automatically added to compile classpath). Default value is: ${project.build.directory}/generated-sources/gwt.

Optional Parameters

Name	Type	Since	Description
compileSourcesArtifacts	String[]	-	Artifacts to be included as source-jars in GWTCompiler Classpath. Removes the restriction that source code must be bundled inside of the final JAR when dealing with external utility libraries not designed exclusivelly for GWT. The plugin will download the source.jar if necessary. This option is a workaround to avoid packaging sources inside the same JAR when splitting and application into modules. A smaller JAR can then be used on server classpath and distributed without sources (that may not be desirable).
deploy	File	2.3.0-1	The directory into which deployable but not servable output files will be written (defaults to 'WEB-INF/deploy' under the webappDirectory directory/jar, and may be the same as the extra directory/jar)
excludes	String	-	Comma separated list of ant-style exclusion patterns for GWT integration tests
extraJvmArgs	String	-	Extra JVM arguments that are passed to the GWT-Maven generated scripts (for compiler, shell, etc - typically use -Xmx512m here, or -XstartOnFirstThread, etc). Can be set from command line using '-Dgwt.extraJvmArgs=...', defaults to setting max Heap size to be large enough for most GWT use cases. Default value is: -Xmx512m.
gen	File	-	Location on filesystem where GWT will write generated content for review (-gen option to GWTCompiler). Can be set from command line using '-Dgwt.gen=...' Default value is: ${project.build.directory}/.generated.
gwtSdkFirstInClasspath	boolean	2.1.0-1	The forked command line will use gwt sdk jars first in classpath. see issue http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=5290 Default value is: false.
htmlunit	String	-	Configure options to run tests with HTMLUnit. The value must descrivbe the browser emulation to be used, FF2, FF3, IE6, IE7, or IE8 (possible multiple values separated by comas). Default value is: FF3.
includes	String	-	Comma separated list of ant-style inclusion patterns for GWT integration tests. For example, can be set to **\/*GwtTest.java to match all test class following this naming convention. Surefire plugin may then ne configured to exclude such tests. It is recommended to use a TestSuite to run GwtTests, as they require some huge setup and are very slow. Running inside a suite allow to execute the setup only once. The default value is defined with this best practice in mind. Default value is: **/GwtTest*.java,**/Gwt*Suite.java.
inplace	boolean	-	Select the place where GWT application is built. In inplace mode, the warSourceDirectory is used to match the same use case of the war:inplace http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-war-plugin/inplace-mojo.html goal. Default value is: false.
jvm	String	1.1	Option to specify the jvm (or path to the java executable) to use with the forking scripts. For the default, the jvm will be the same as the one used to run Maven.
logLevel	String	-	GWT logging level (-logLevel ERROR, WARN, INFO, TRACE, DEBUG, SPAM, or ALL). Can be set from command line using '-Dgwt.logLevel=...' Default value is: INFO.
mode	String	-	Configure test mode. Can be set to "manual", "htmlunit", "selenium" or "remoteweb". Default value is: manual.
module	String	-	A single GWT module. Shortcut for <modules> or option to specify a single module from command line
modules	String[]	-	The project GWT modules. If not set, the plugin will scan the project for .gwt.xml files.
out	String	-	output directory for code generated by GWT for tests Default value is: target/www-test.
productionMode	boolean	-	run tests using production mode rather than development (a.k.a. hosted) mode. Default value is: false.
remoteweb	String	-	Configure options to run tests RemoteWebBrowser. The value must describe remote web URL, like "rmi://myhost/ie8" You must start BrowserManagerServer before running tests with this option (gwt:browser).
reportsDirectory	File	-	Directory for test reports, defaults to surefire one to match the surefire-report plugin Default value is: ${project.build.directory}/surefire-reports.
selenium	String	-	Configure options to run tests with Selenium. The value must describe the Selenium Remote Control target
skip	boolean	-	Set this to 'true' to bypass unit tests entirely. Its use is NOT RECOMMENDED, especially if you enable it using the "maven.test.skip" property, because maven.test.skip disables both running the tests and compiling the tests. Consider using the skipTests parameter instead.
skipExec	boolean	-	DEPRECATED This old parameter is just like skipTests, but bound to the old property maven.test.skip.exec. Use -DskipTests instead; it's shorter.
skipTests	boolean	-	Set this to 'true' to skip running tests, but still compile them. Its use is NOT RECOMMENDED, but quite convenient on occasion.
style	String	-	GWT JavaScript compiler output style (-style OBF[USCATED], PRETTY, or DETAILED). Can be set from command line using '-Dgwt.style=...' Default value is: OBF.
testFailureIgnore	boolean	-	Set this to true to ignore a failure during testing. Its use is NOT RECOMMENDED, but quite convenient on occasion.
testTimeOut	int	-	Time out (in seconds) for test execution in dedicated JVM Default value is: 60.
timeOut	int	-	Forked process execution timeOut. Usefull to avoid maven to hang in continuous integration server.
warSourceDirectory	File	-	Location of the web application static resources (same as maven-war-plugin parameter) Default value is: ${basedir}/src/main/webapp.
webMode	boolean	-	run tests using web mode rather than developer (a.k.a. hosted) mode Default value is: false.
webappDirectory	File	-	Location on filesystem where GWT will write output files (-out option to GWTCompiler). Default value is: ${project.build.directory}/${project.build.finalName}.
