I believe "reproducible build" is a more appropriate term. Unfortunately its quite difficult to get a fully reproducible build with Maven as the post points out. Even if you manage to replicate the build environment and settings, Maven produced binaries will be slightly different on each run. File timestamps are saved in jar files so they change on every build.
