Maven forkCount and reuseForks apparently not respected

Hello,

I am using systemstubs library.

As its author said, because of the way the library works, tests using it must be running in a forked vm, one per test.

I have been able to make this work in maven.

I have a multi module pom.xml. In my specific module pom.xml I configured sure-fire as follows:

<plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>3.2.5</version>

                <configuration>
                    <forkCount>2.5C</forkCount>
                    <reuseForks>false</reuseForks>
                </configuration>

            </plugin>

This makes tests run by maven in cli run correctly.

However, when I run tests in vs code, they behave exactly as like they did when maven had not been configured with 1 fork, not reusing forks.

it seems as if not only is vs code not forking vms, it is running even methods in paralel, because tests in the same class are conflicting, while they should run sequentially in one thread, one after the other, in a class exclusive jvm process as maven is doing.

This makes me believe that either

vscode has its own runner and does not delegate to maven the test running OR
Some how delegation is ignoring the specific configuration in the module's pom.xml.

I have been searching a way to let vscode test runner know tthat either it should fork jvm process and run one test in each vm or it should delegate and follow what is specified in pom.xml.

Another desired and may be faster solution is to find (something I haven't found either) a way of asking vscode to just ignore these tests when running tests, so that we stop having failures on the test result.

Can you please provide me with information on how to proceed?
