What's your opinion about this. Can we improve the provider and accept package
private classes?
> package-private class/method supported in JUnit5 is not executed
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SUREFIRE-1621
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-1621
> Project: Maven Surefire
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: JUnit 5.x support
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0-M3
> Environment: Java openJDK11, Maven 3.6.0
> Reporter: Alex Chachanashvili
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: MavenJUnit5Test.tar.gz
>
>
> Test classes/methods have to be made pubic in order for maven/surefire to
> execute them.
>
> Following will not execute (DebugTest.java) with surefire but will work with
> IntelliJ, eclipse, Gradle, etc that support JUnit5:
>
> {code:java}
> class SampleTest {
> @Test
> void testAlwaysFails() { assertTrue(false); }
> }{code}
>
> However changing it to following will work with Surefire but cause IDEs to
> flag public scope that can be changed to package-private:
>
> {code:java}
> public class SampleTest {
> @Test
> public void testAlwaysFails() { assertTrue(false); }
> }
> {code}
>
> JUnit 5 is supposed to support package-private declaration for test classes
> and test methods and IDEs like IntelliJ and eclipse are suggesting this,
> creating issues for people writing new tests that are not aware of the
> surefire anomaly. Also automatic code cleanup in some IDEs are changing the
> tests to be package-private and causing them to no longer run.
>
> Package-private tests are running correctly inside the IDEs and via Gradle,
> but being skipped with Maven+Surefire.
>
> POM is basically a simple java project with test file, attached.
