            </rule>

</plugin>

To set up reporting:

<plugin>
   <!-- JQAssistant -->
   <!-- Architecture analysis tool. -->
   <groupId>com.buschmais.jqassistant</groupId>
   <artifactId>jqassistant-maven-plugin</artifactId>
   <reportSets>
      <reportSet>
         <reports>
            <report>report</report>
         </reports>
      </reportSet>
   </reportSets>
</plugin>

Usage

Just run the integration tests:

mvn clean verify

Or the plugin commands (this will require additional configuration to load the groups):

mvn jqassistant:scan jqassistant:analyze

Once it has finished you can start a local client for checking the analysis:

mvn jqassistant:server

Or if you need to make use of advanced funciones remember to activate APOC:

mvn jqassistant:server -Djqassistant.embedded.apocEnabled=true

The server will be available at http://localhost:7474
