Maven: Does it work for not Java code? - maven

Question

I'm newbie to maven (just 2 days playing with it).
I've some problems setting up maven with jacoco plugin and surefire/failsafe.
Despite it reads and copies the source files it doesn't compile them!
I set new directories as I don't follow the standard maven directory layout but it seems not working. The problem is that I cannot change my project's layout as it's the company's.
So, Im trying to solved it manually.

EDIT:
Also, I wonder if Maven works for projects not with Java code.
Is there any way to make it support a scripting language? And run its tests?
