Christoph Läubrich commented on SUREFIRE-1910:
----------------------------------------------
btw this should be reproducible with any maven project, simply create for
example an empty one with no test -> mvn test -> succeds (because failIfNoTests
defaults to false), mvn test -Dabc -> fails with the error.
> Missleading error message when using -Dtest=....

> Project: Maven Surefire
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.22.2
> Reporter: Christoph Läubrich
> Priority: Major
>
> I run
> {noformat}
> mvn clean verify -Dtest=abc
> {noformat}
> then I get the following error message:
> {noformat}
> No tests were executed! (Set -DfailIfNoTests=false to ignore this error.)
> {noformat}
> This is missleading as failIfNoTests is false by default. Actually I have to
> set surefire.failIfNoSpecifiedTests=false
