Add option to run goals initially

[udalrich]

This looks quite useful. It would be great if it could (optionally) run the goals once before starting to watch. As it is, I start the watcher (which I have configured to run my tests), and then I have to make a trivial change and save it to get the first build to run.

You can run multiple goals from the command line. Doesn't this simply work? `mvn compile other-goal watcher

It works, unless the other goal fails. I'm usually doing this after I changed/added a test that I expect to fail, so `mvn test watcher` will exit before it runs watcher. Otoh, I could add --fail-at-end Troy On Feb 16, 2017 1:09 PM, "Joe Lauer" <notifications@github.com> wrote: You can run multiple goals from the command line.
