I have a scala test class but when I attempt to run using the Maven goal ‘test’
the tests are not being run. I receive the Maven message “There are no tests to run.” even though the tests are located in the scala test class. Do I need to add extra configuration ?
Here is my package setup :

Here is the output of the Maven “test” goal when run against the pom file :

What’s your test class name? Maven can be pretty picky and by default I think it requires the class name to end in ‘Test’.
See my previos post:
Maven won't run tests
