Can you test with surefire 2 6 and either configure Surefire with  lt testFailureIgnore gt true lt  testFailureIgnore gt   Or on the command line  mvn install -Dmaven test failure ignore true

From the Maven Embedder documentation      -fae --fail-at-end            Only fail the build afterwards  allow all non-impacted builds to continue      -fn --fail-never              NEVER fail the build  regardless of project result   So if you are testing one module than you are safe using -fae   Otherwise  if you have multiple modules  and if you want all of them tested  even the ones that depend on the failing tests module   you should run mvn clean install -fn  -fae will continue with the module that has a failing test  will run all other tests   but all modules that depend on it will be skipped

Try to add the following configuration for surefire plugin in your pom xml of root project    lt project gt             lt build gt       lt plugins gt         lt plugin gt           lt groupId gt org apache maven plugins lt  groupId gt           lt artifactId gt maven-surefire-plugin lt  artifactId gt           lt configuration gt             lt testFailureIgnore gt true lt  testFailureIgnore gt           lt  configuration gt         lt  plugin gt       lt  plugins gt     lt  build gt           lt  project gt

I just found the  -fae  parameter  which causes Maven to run all tests and not stop on failure
