Now we must test the command line to be sure everything installed correctly.
Bring up the command line either by typing cmd in search, or navigating the start menu.
From the prompt, you do not need to change directory as setting Path allows you to reference it.
Type the following command:
mvn -v
something like this should show up
Apache Maven 3.3.3 (7994120775791599e205a5524ec3e0dfe41d4a06; 2015-04-22T04:57:3 7-07:00) Maven home: C:\Maven Java version: 1.8.0_45, vendor: Oracle Corporation Java home: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_45\jre Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: Cp1252 OS name: "windows 7", version: "6.1", arch: "amd64", family: "dos"
If you see this message, success! You have finished installation and are ready to use Maven! If not, go back on your settings and insure that JDK is installed, and the JAVA_HOME, M2_HOME, and MAVEN_HOME variables are set properly.
