Research direction

Reproduce the failure by using a project directory containing spaces, setting false in the AssertJ plugin, and running mvn clean install -DskipTests=true. Inspect the plugin's path handling and output showing that no target classes were found; done means assertion classes are generated successfully from such a project path.

Description

  2. Set <quiet>false</quiet> in the AssertJ plugin
  3. Rebuild mvn clean install -DskipTests=true
  4. Nothing gets generated, in the output it shows that no target classes have been found
