Is there any way to execute a specific phase in a maven build. For example, if I only want to run those plug-ins that execute in the pre-integration-phase, does Maven provide a means to do that?
e.g.
mvn pre-integration-phase

1Can you give an example where you need that ? Which reason do you have? – khmarbaise Dec 22 '11 at 19:11

2I need this in a build pipeline where we'd like to split up the phases into distinct steps in the build pipeline to better see where errors occur. – Elven Spellmaker Aug 04 '20 at 17:00

You can't call the life-cycle-phase itself but you can call the goals of the plugins which are bound to the life-cycle-phases.
mvn compile:testCompile
mvn failsafe:integration-test
but usually this shouldn't be needed...

1But when you do `mvn clean install` you are calling the life-cycle-phases directly https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6018701/how-is-mvn-clean-install-different-from-mvn-install – antonro Sep 16 '19 at 07:29

4The problem with using `install` is that all phase before are also executed. And the questions was targeting to call just `install` without the previous life cycle phases which is not possible. – khmarbaise Jan 05 '20 at 21:33
