Answer 1

This message: [INFO] Tests run: 0, Failures: 0, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0 is produced via maven's surefire plugin. The issue happens when junit conflicts with TestNG. It can be not visible (especially when there is no explicit dependency in your POM-file), but if you run mvn -X test (produces execution debug output), you can find that surefire is actually preparing TestNG which fails to find any tests in this setup.

The solution would be to force maven to use surefire with junit(Manually Specifying a Provider):

pom.xml:

<plugins>
[...]
  <plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>3.0.0-M5</version>
    <dependencies>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.surefire</groupId>
        <artifactId>surefire-junit47</artifactId>
        <version>3.0.0-M5</version>
      </dependency>
    </dependencies>
  </plugin>
[...]
</plugins>

Making this change to POM and rebuilding the project finally picked up the right counts for the tests.
