Integration Test with failsafe - maven

Question

I am using a simple java application with unit and integration tests.
My goal is to run integration tests with maven & failsafe plugin.
I am having a problem running my integration tests.
short explenation: I get an error from "test-compile" phase at maven, which says "cannot find symbol".
project structure:
parent (pom.xml)
integration test module (test files with pom.xml)
webApp module (source files with pom.xml)
the error I am getting is becouse I am trying to instantiate an object from webApp module (inside some test - in integration tests module).
I also added dependency for webapp inside integration-test module pom.
details:
the integration test class:
import junit.framework.TestCase;
import org.junit.Test;
public class CalcsITCase extends TestCase {
#Test
public void emptyTest() throws Exception {
assertEquals(true,true);
}
#Test
public void playTest() throws Exception {
Band band = new Band(4);
assertEquals(true,true);
}
}
the class that being tested
import org.json.JSONObject;
import java.security.InvalidParameterException;
public class Band {
public int id;
public String name = "";
public String logo = "";
public String song = "";
public int votes = 0;
public Band(int members) {
System.out.println(members + " members in band");
}
....
The integration test pom.xml:

Edit:
Additional Info:
The maven output states that we can't compile the "CalcsITCase.java" class because we doesn't know "Band.java" class..
integration-test module does compile in intellij, it doesn't compile in maven..
The webApp module compile in maven and in intellij successfully.
Also, the test class (CalcsITCase) and subject class (Band) are in the same package.. so it's not an import issue..
i would bet on a maven issue.. but after hours of googling and searching.. i could not found it..

Answer 1

You must import the Band class in your test class, i.e. add the following line to the list import statements in CalcsITCase:
import replace.with.correct.package.name.Band;
Obviously, you need to change the replace.with.correct.package.name with the package name of the Band class.
