Spring boot tests overrides surefire plugin listeners

[estigma88]

Spring boot tests seem to be overridden surefire plugin listeners.

Spring boot parent version: 2.2.0.RELEASE
Surefire maven plugin version: 3.0.0-M3
Java version: 11

I attached a project to demonstrate it, where there is a listener that prints to the sysout if it is executed. If I change the spring boot parent version to 2.1.9.RELEASE, the listener is executed.

Thanks for the issue report. It turns out this is related to our upgrade to JUnit 5. I've update the release notes to show how you can rollback to JUnit 4 if you need to use listeners.

You need to do the following:
