maven junit test not executed with xchart dependency present

[bernard01]

Apache NetBeans version

Apache NetBeans 21

What happened

A maven java project compiles but a junit test is not executed only if a specific dependency exists in the pom.xml file: xchart.

If that dependency is removed and the code using it is commented out, then the test is executed as expected.

The test is executed as expected from the command line:

mvn test -Dtest=ArticlePageParserTest#testParse

Language / Project Type / NetBeans Component

No response

How to reproduce

See description above and attached test case (NetBeans Maven project)

Did this work correctly in an earlier version?

No / Don't know

Operating System

Windows 7

JDK

JDK 21

Apache NetBeans packaging

Apache NetBeans provided installer

Anything else

From my POV this project is broken:

1. The version of the surefire plugin is not configured. Resulting in undefined behavior. I have mvn 3.8.1 installed and NetBeans bundles 3.9.6. Runs with the former give me surefire 2.12.4, with the latter 3.2.2. Run this: mvn test -Dtest=ArticlePageParserTest#testParse org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:3.2.2:test org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.12.4:test. I get:

2. pdfbox in version 3.0.1 is broken as it pulls in junit5 onto the compile path

Fixing the pom.xml to this:

Is already enough as surefire 3.x then correctly detects only JUnit4 and invokes the test.
