Hi,

I am trying to run Gatling 1.5.2 through maven. B am able to compile it with out any failures but when I do mvn gatling:execute -Dgatling.simulationClass=SimulationTest, I get the following error:

[ERROR] No plugin found for prefix ‘gatling’ in the current project and in the plugin groups [org.apache.maven.plugins, org.codehaus.mojo] available from the repositories [local (/Users/user/.m2/repository), excilys ([http://repository.excilys.com/content/groups/public](http://repository.excilys.com/content/groups/public)), central ([http://x.x.x](http://x.x.x).:8081/artifactory/plugins-release), snapshots ([http://x.x.x](http://x.x.x).:8081/artifactory/plugins-snapshot)]

You probably didn’t declare the gatling maven plugin in your build section in your pom.xml:  
[https://github.com/excilys/gatling/wiki/Maven-plugin#wiki-plugin](https://github.com/excilys/gatling/wiki/Maven-plugin#wiki-plugin)

Here’s an example:
