Also, when using JUnit 4, your test class should NOT extend from any JUnit class as was the case in JUnit 3. I remember a very tricky issue on this mailing list a year or so ago, where someone used JUnit 4 style annotations but the tests weren't run. The reason was that the test class extended JUnit 3's TestCase class. As Junit 4 is backwards compatible, it would compile. But it wouldn't run with the surefire plugin in Maven.
