mvn test + JUnit5 + log4j：为什么在@BeforeAll 和@BeforeEach 中打印的日志不是 output 到控制台？

Question

I create a simple maven project to describe my problem

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

      <groupId>org.apache.logging.log4j</groupId>
      <artifactId>log4j-api</artifactId>

      <artifactId>log4j-jcl</artifactId>
      <version>2.19.0</version>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
</project>

my test class code

import org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager;
import org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.BeforeAll;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.BeforeEach;
import org.junit.jupiter.api.Test;

public class TestDemo {

  static Logger log = LogManager.getLogger(TestDemo.class);
  @BeforeAll
  public static void setupClass() {
    log.info("BeforeAll 111 from log.info");
    System.out.println("BeforeAll 111 from print");
    log.info("BeforeAll 222 from log.info");
    System.out.println("BeforeAll 222 from print");
  }

  @BeforeEach
  public void setup() {
    log.info("BeforeEach 111 from log.info");
    System.out.println("BeforeEach 111 from print");
    log.info("BeforeEach 222 from log.info");
    System.out.println("BeforeEach 222 from print");
  }

  @Test
  public void test1() {
    log.info("test1 111 from log.info");
    System.out.println("test 111 from print");
    log.info("test1 222 from log.info");
    System.out.println("test 222 from print");
  }
}

and the log4j2.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Configuration status="WARN">
  <Appenders>
    <Console name="LogToConsole" target="SYSTEM_OUT">
      <PatternLayout pattern="%d{YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} [%t] %-5p %c{1}:%L - %msg%n"/>
    </Console>
  </Appenders>
  <Loggers>
    <Root level="info">
      <AppenderRef ref="LogToConsole"/>
    </Root>
    <Logger name="com.hexagon" level="debug" additivity="false">
      <AppenderRef ref="LogToConsole"/>
    </Logger>
  </Loggers>
</Configuration>

My question is, when I run it using mvn test , I can only see the logs from @Test function, while I don't see the logs from @BeforeAll and @BeforeEach, why and how to enable it?

The methods BeforeAll and BeforeEach are not executed due to surefire plugin. You should use at least maven-surefire-plugin#3.0.0-M1.

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-surefire-report-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>3.0.0-M1</version>
</plugin>
