Answer 1

I reproduced this issue on Eclipse/Maven/JDK1.8/SureFire Plugin.

Resolution:-

The problem solved when I corrected all my running tests. Error went away once all tests are passed. Although this do not specify root cause and exact solution of problem, I feel there is something to do with default setting of surefire plugin to skipping tests after any of test is failed
