No, the tests are run as part of the deploy. So before deploying a library, if the tests don't pass, the deploy fails.

However, the artifact that actually gets deployed is a .jar file containing .class files. Users of libraries don't rebuild the libraries.

Just to clarify, "deploy" in this sense means "upload to your organization's maven repository (or maven central)".

Ok cool, I understand.

So would you guess there'd be wide-spread 'deploy-time' test coverage across the Java ecosystem?

Thanks again!
