It is possible to export all the jars that Twist depends on. These jars can then be used to execute scenarios using tools such as Ant, Maven and Rake. The option to Export Twist Libraries is available in the Context Menu of a Twist project.

Twist Scenarios can be run from Maven by calling the Ant target from Maven, using the maven-antrun-plugin.

Here are the steps required to do this:

1. Create the Ant target using the template 'twist-target'. See running scenarios from Ant for more.
2. Create a Maven profile as shown in the example below. Replace parameters surrounded with braces with suitable values.

<profiles>
    <profile>
        <id>{profile-id-used-for-command-line-execution}</id>
        <build>
            <plugins>
                <plugin>
                    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                    <artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
                    <executions>
                        <execution>
                            <id>{appropriate-id}</id>
                            <configuration>
                                <tasks>
                                    <property name="ant.library.dir" value="{location-of-ant-library}"/>
                                    <ant dir="{location-of-ant-build-file-created-as-part-of-step-1}" 
                                                inheritRefs="true">
                                        <target name="execute-scenarios" />
                                    </ant>
                                </tasks>
                            </configuration>

                            <goals>
                                <goal>{a-goal-name. For ex "test"}</goal>
                            </goals>
                            <phase>{phase-after-which-the-scenarios-are-to-be-executed. For ex "post-integration-test"}</phase>
                        </execution>
                    </executions>
                </plugin>
            </plugins>
        </build>
    </profile>
</profiles>  
    

During the Maven execution, provide the profile id used in the newly created profile. For ex:

 
mvn clean install -P {profile-id-created}
