Test cases are not running when doing a mvn clean install but the project is compiling success

Question

But when I am running the individual test case by right click and run as junit test, they are executing successfully. I am using junit 4. Just to update that I have explicitly created package under src/test/java and deleted the default test class that used to come by default when creating a maven project. Is there any place to specify the test package in pom? Below is the pom file:

</project>

And the test case is :

import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;
import static org.mockito.Mockito.when;

import org.junit.Test;
import org.junit.runner.RunWith;
import org.mockito.InjectMocks;
import org.mockito.Mock;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration;
import org.springframework.boot.test.context.SpringBootTest;
import org.springframework.http.HttpStatus;
import org.springframework.http.ResponseEntity;
import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringRunner;

@RunWith(SpringRunner.class)
@SpringBootTest
@EnableAutoConfiguration
public class MyControllerTest {

    @Mock
    MyService myService;
    @InjectMocks
    private MyController myController;

    @Test
    public void testPostData() {
        when(myService.postLRAData()).thenReturn(" Data saved to DB successfully!!");
        ResponseEntity<String> response = new ResponseEntity<String>("Data saved to DB successfully!!",
                HttpStatus.CREATED);
        assertEquals(response, myController.postLRAData());
    }

}

And the project structure is : project dir structure

Run now is handled by the IDE, so something is wrong in your maven setup. Can you run the above command with `-X` for debug. That might reveal a problem. Otherwise try to search SO for surefire+junit4. For example: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2021771/surefire-is-not-picking-up-junit-4-tests — slindenau, Aug 05 '22 at 15:15
@JoopEggen tried with mvn clean test, it is also showing the same thing: [INFO] Results: [INFO] [INFO] Tests run: 0, Failures: 0, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0 — Madan Mohan Mishra, Aug 08 '22 at 07:13
The test sources are under src/test/java/? (Not src/main/java/.) — Joop Eggen, Aug 08 '22 at 07:17
I see `" Data...` with space and without space `"Data...` - but there it does not arrive at. — Joop Eggen, Aug 08 '22 at 10:26
@JoopEggen, that should not make much difference but my point is test case should execute atleast — Madan Mohan Mishra, Aug 08 '22 at 11:38

Test cases are successfully running when mvn clean install

then required one plugin in pom.xml

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.17</version>
    <configuration>
        <test>**</test>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

** -> qualified name of test class with extension .java

for example:

package com.test;

import org.junit.Test;
public class Check {

    @Test
    public void test() {
    
        //test cases logic
    }
}

like : com.test.Check.java

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.17</version>
    <configuration>
        <test>com.test.Check.java</test>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

After that run mvn clean install

Test cases are not running when doing a mvn clean install but the project is compiling success
