Java app deployment to heroku using Maven failed

I am trying to setup the Continuous deployment process for a Tomcat based java app using Github for source code hosting, TravisCI for building the WAR file, running the unit tests and then Heroku to deploy the packaged WAR file.
I tried following the tutorial from
https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/deploying-war-files-to-heroku-from-travis-ci#creating-a-java-web-application
I am getting an error while running the below step from the above tutorial:
mvn clean heroku:deploy-war

I found what the issue was!!!
Heroku deploy-war maven plugin requires Maven 3.2.X version while I was using 3.0.X version.
Installed Maven 3.2.1 version on my ubuntu machine and the war file was successfully deployed to Heroku.
I got to know this from Github Heroku Maven plugin repository Readme file:
Requirements
Maven 3.2.x
Java 1.7 or higher
Thank you #Steve for your time.
Output:
$ maven -version

Am I doing something wrong?. Please help.
Thanks

I think I found the answer to my question. I was actually expecting build-helper plugin to create the test folder for me. But the fact is, it won't create the folder for you.
You have to create the test folder and use this build-helper plugin to tell maven to treat the folder you created as test folder as shown in my pom above. I was able fix my issue by creating a new test folder and ran the following command
mvn generate-test-sources eclipse:eclipse
Hope this helps someone!
