MUnit test fails with Maven (Failed to invoke lifecycle phase "start") - maven

Question

We have a Mule flow with an associated MUnit test suite. The test runs fine when executed out of Anypoint Studio (right-click in the MUnit flow and select "Run MUnit Suite").
However with Maven with mvn test -X from the command line we get exceptions.
We are using Anypoint Studio 5.4.1 MUnit 1.1.0 Mule Version 3.6.1

Answer 1

Could you please update the mule.munit.support.version to 3.6.2? That is the latest released version. I saw this kind of errors in the past and I solved it by doing that. In case that it continues failing, could you attach an example of the flow that you are testing?

Answer 2

Update the munit version to latest one. I had the same error while executing the munit.
