The phases of the mavenSW lifecycle leading up to and including the package phase are displayed in the console output. We can see that the various phases occur, such as the test phase where one unit test is run. At the end, we see that the jar:jar goal is run for the package phase, which builds the jarW file. If we now examine the mytest project after it has been refreshed, we can see that the mytest-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar file has been built in the target directory.

Notice that the name of the jar file (mytest-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar) is the artifactId (mytest) followed by the version (1.0-SNAPSHOT).
