The flex-mojos project supports unit testing of Flex code, but it doesn’t use Maven’s default surefire plugin for running tests. As a result, you need to make a slight tweak to your pom.xml file:

<reporting>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-surefire-report-plugin</artifactId>
      <configuration>
        <reportsDirectory>${project.build.directory}/test-reports</reportsDirectory>
      </configuration>
  </plugin>
  </plugins>
</reporting>

Here’s some sample output:

UPDATE – With the Flex Mojos 1.0 release, the output directory for FlexUnit tests has changed. It’s now surefire-reports, so you can simply include the surefire-report plugin in your pom.xml file without any configuration:

<reporting>
  <plugins>
    <plugin>
      <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
      <artifactId>maven-surefire-report-plugin</artifactId>
  </plugin>
  </plugins>
</reporting>
