Error when executing tests in java maven jacoco: Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.12.4:test

Good Morning. I am carrying out a Maven project and I use NetBeans to write Java code. When I try to run a test file, I get this error:

cd C:\Users\ruimi\Documents\NetBeansProjects\erro_testes_unitarios; "JAVA_HOME=C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jdk-14" cmd /c "\"C:\\Program Files\\netbeans 11.3 tenativa 1000\\NetBeans-11.3\\netbeans\\java\\maven\\bin\\mvn.cmd\" -Dtest=com.mycompany.erro_testes_unitarios.NewMainTest -Dmaven.ext.class.path=\"C:\\Program Files\\netbeans 11.3 tenativa 1000\\NetBeans-11.3\\netbeans\\java\\maven-nblib\\netbeans-eventspy.jar\" -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 test-compile surefire:test"

Can you help me with this? Thank you all for your availability!

Apparently, you are using JDK 14 as your dev and test environment. You can check it. Go to Help -> About -> Java. Integrated Maven and all plugins within Maven uses the JDK version that NetBeans using as an exec environment.

Jacoco added experimental support for JDK 14 only in 0.8.5 version:

• JaCoCo now officially supports Java 13
• Experimental support for Java 14 class files (GitHub #897).
• Branches added by the Kotlin compiler for open functions with default arguments are filtered out during generation of report (GitHub #887).

You can change the plugin version to 0.8.5:

...
<groupId>org.jacoco</groupId> 
  <artifactId>jacoco-maven-plugin</artifactId> 
<version>0.8.5</version>
... 

The 0.7.7 version supports JDK 8 or earlier versions. So, if you want to use the 0.7.7 version of the plugin you can use JDK 8. For setting JDK version for NetBeans please see the question. Also with JDK 8 you should change maven.compiler.source and maven.compiler.target to 1.8
