jenkins maven build not running JUnit tests

Question

I have the exact same code, just being compiled in two different ways. One is a maven build in Spring, and the other is a maven build in Jenkins.

The Spring build produces

But the Jenkins build produces

How do i get Jenkins to also run unit tests and stop build when a case fails?

Adding MAVEN_OPTS -DskipTests=false -Dmaven.test.failure.ignore=false does not work.

Turns out i was missing a plugin in my POM.xml

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.8.1</version>
</plugin>
