Maven unable to run specific test

Question

I am running test cases through maven. Using following commands :

Getting Success : mvn test

Getting Failure : mvn -Dtest=LoginTest test

The class name is LoginTest

Stacktrace :

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.12.4:test (default-test) on project Web: No tests were executed! (Set -DfailIfNoTests=false to ignore this error.) -> [Help 1] org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException: Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.12.4:test (default-test) on project Web: No tests were executed!

I believe surefire is looking for a suffix of "Test" by default, not "test". Either rename your class to end with "Test", or add "test" to your surefire configuration in your pom.xml like this:

            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>${maven-surefire-plugin.version}</version>
                <configuration>
                    <includes>
                        <include>**/*Test.class</include>
                        <include>**/*test.class</include>
                    </includes>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>
