Build on debian/ubuntu: failed to execute goal (...)maven-surefire-plugin:2.22.0

Observed behaviour

After the latest java upgrade on at least debian and ubuntu maven surefire plugin stops working with this error:

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] BUILD FAILURE
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.22.0:test 
               (default-test) on project contrast-finder-utils: There are test failures.

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

git clone https://github.com/Asqatasun/Contrast-Finder.git
cd Contrast-Finder
mvn clean install

Expected behaviour

Surefire team is working on a fix (after 2.22.1) but in the mean time there is a work around. We could implement it until the plugin is fixed. See: https://github.com/jhipster/generator-jhipster/issues/8693
