Inconsistency of figures 2-17 and 2-29 #17

There is an inconsistency in the content shown in figures 2-17 and 2-29. To make javadoc publication work, 2-17 must say "clean install" (as you told me). But figure 2-29 says "clean test" when adding the cobertura publishing.

This is confusion. It obviously must still say "clean install", or the book must explain why you changed it to "clean test".

In the PDF version of the book, fig 2.28 has clean test, fig 2.25 has clean install -o, and fig 2.17 (and the book text) says clean package, all for the first build step.

The differences in the later screenshots are never mentioned in the text, so if configuration changes are needed to get the tutorial working, the reader is left to notice them on their own. Since "the examples don't require much knowledge of Maven," it leaves me to figure out where the error lies: the book text, the screenshot, Jenkins, the Jenkins Maven plugin, my Maven installation...?
