How do I install a test-jar in maven?

Viewed 21344

I have a test-jar which I would like to install. I am not sure if there is a different way to install test-jars, such as defining a property that tells maven it is a test-jar.

Also, the groupId and artifactId are the same as another jar for which the test is made from.

So far this is how my install command looks like:

mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.example -DartifactId=example -Dpackaging=jar -Dversion=1.2.3 -Dfile=example-test.jar -DgeneratePom=true

So how exactly would I install a test jar? I know there has to be something to tell maven it is a test-jar since the groupId and artifactId is the same as another jar(which would be the jar that example-test.jar is a test of).
