Surefire error on test failures with --xml-result option

[amirjamak]

Using --xml-result option works fine when all tests are passing.
If a single test fails (not an error, simple assert fail) then I receive nullpointer error on Surefire execution report-only of goal.
Stacktrace:

Hi,

Can you provide minimal test case and pom.xml?
