## wildfly:start-jar

Full name:

org.wildfly.plugins:wildfly-maven-plugin:5.1.1.Final:start-jar

Description:

Starts a WildFly Application Server packaged as Bootable JAR.

The purpose of this goal is to start a WildFly Application Server packaged as a Bootable JAR for testing during the maven lifecycle.

Attributes:

- Requires a Maven project to be executed.
- Requires dependency resolution of artifacts in scope: `runtime`.
- The goal is not marked as thread-safe and thus does not support parallel builds.
- Since version: `5.0`.
