This is Maven problem, not JMH problem. Seek advice on Maven configuration. I suspect that attaching
org.codehaus.mojo:exec-maven-plugin to <phase>integration-test</phase> is what gets your thing to run.

Incidentally, executing JMH with "java -cp ${cp} org.openjdk.jmh.Main .*" quite probably misses the
important resources. It is much safer to run the benchmarks.jar generated by the build.
