      <configuration>
          <compilerArgument>-parameters</compilerArgument>

          <testCompilerArgument>-parameters</testCompilerArgument>
      </configuration>
  </plugin>
  ```
* Add exec-maven plugin to generate custom TestNg file as per the platform selected in automation configuration<br>

  <pre><code><strong>&#x3C;plugin>
  </strong>        &#x3C;groupId>org.codehaus.mojo&#x3C;/groupId>
          &#x3C;artifactId>exec-maven-plugin&#x3C;/artifactId>

          &#x3C;executions>
           &#x3C;execution>
             &#x3C;goals>
               &#x3C;goal>java&#x3C;/goal>

           &#x3C;/execution>
          &#x3C;/executions>
          &#x3C;configuration>
            &#x3C;mainClass>in.precisiontestautomation.runner.ScriptlessApplication&#x3C;/mainClass>
              &#x3C;arguments>
                &#x3C;argument>true&#x3C;/argument>

       <version>3.0.0-M4</version>
         <configuration>
            <argLine>-XX:+ExplicitGInvokesConcurrent</argLine>
            <argLine>--add-opens java.base/java.lang.reflect=ALL-UNNAMED</argLine>
            <testFailureIgnore>false</testFailureIgnore>
              <suiteXmlFiles>
                 <suiteXmlFile>target/testngenerator.xml</suiteXmlFile>
