How to configure maven surefire to use jvm agent which is dependency?

I would like to configure the maven sure fire plugin to run jvm unit testing with an argument for a java agent. The agent jar file is obtained from the maven center, so I want maven to automatically determine the path to the agent jar file.

<plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.12.4</version> <configuration> <argLine>-javaagent: How to reference an agent jar that is a depedency </argLine> </configuration> </plugin>

How can I refer to the path to the agent, which is the project dependency, using the maven coordinates?

You can copy one of your required cans to the destination. Then contact this bank at the command prompt.

Here is an example (using log4j, which is NOT a valid agent flag, but just shows an example):

 <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.5.1</version> <executions> <execution> <id>copy-agent</id> <phase>process-test-classes</phase> <goals> <goal>copy</goal> </goals> <configuration> <artifactItems> <artifactItem> <groupId>log4j</groupId> <artifactId>log4j</artifactId> <version>1.2.14</version> <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/agents</outputDirectory> <destFileName>my-special-agent.jar</destFileName> </artifactItem> </artifactItems> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.12.4</version> <configuration> <argLine>-javaagent:${project.build.directory}/agents/my-special-agent.jar</argLine> </configuration> </plugin>
