   That's exactly the plan of @junit-team! The platform is the stable part that 
build tools depend on. What a test is and how to execute it, is defined by an 
engine implementation. Like "Jupiter" now and _"Saturn"_ (JUnit 6) in a few 
years... or any other flavor. See the list of well-known engine implementations 
at 
https://github.com/junit-team/junit5/wiki/Third-party-Extensions#junit-platform-test-engines
   
   ...so, if a build tool supports the JUnit Platform it doesn't have to care 
about new testing frameworks, as long as they implement `TestEngine`. The 
`junit-platform-engine-jqwik` IT in 1330 shows how and that it works.
