maven-surefire-plugin class missing

[Deltharis]

Similar (possibly the same issue?) as https://github.com/jcgay/maven-color/issues/7. I'd reopen that one, but it was a few versions ago, and I coulnd't find how to do that.

Execution default-test of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.18.1:test failed: A required class was missing while executing org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.18.1:test: com/github/jcgay/maven/color/logger/AnsiColorConsoleLogger

The error came with the following error info:

It does not happen when I skip tests, it does not happen if I turn off coloring with MAVEN_OPTS.

I'm using uncustomized 1.3 logback installation (it happend on 1.2 too, I upgraded to check). My mvn -version:

It is really strange, AnsiColorConsoleLogger was used until maven-color v1.1 for Maven 3.0.x installations. There is no trace of this class anymore as I have stopped supporting Maven 3.0.x.

This is like you are using the old java agent for a Maven 3.3.x installation, but this will never works :smile:

How have you installed maven-color ? The installation guide to follow should be this one: https://github.com/jcgay/maven-color#maven--31x

Thanks !

Ehh... Ok, sorry, that is true. I seem to have never cleaned up maven-color 1.1 and java-agent from maven-opts after updating from 1.1.

No problem, migrations are not really documented :cry:
