How to run unit test in IntelliJ when some modules fail to compile?

I was provided with an outdated project to quickly fix the error. This is an ant based project, so I imported it into intellij using eclipse files. A project has several modules, and some of them do not compile correctly. I would like to do the following:

I have my module, I need to work on compilation, and I need to write some unit tests to cover my changes. But I can not run these tests due to the fact that other modules do not compile. I cannot remove these modules from the project, since I am working on using some classes from these modules (ant magic).

Is there a way not to compile and do the whole project, only one module? I would like to use it, as in eclipse, where you can always run your test, even if the rest of your code has been broken.

For Run configuration, you can call any combination

  • To do everything
  • Building specific artifacts
  • Launch ant targets
  • Run maven commands
  • Show settings.

Using a combination of these functions or disabling them, you should run your program, building only what you need.
