I am able to run the MRUnit tests from eclipse by right clicking the project and clicking Run as JUnit test, but when I run the same MRUnit test program using the mvn test command on the command line, I get the following output with no errors:
...
Running com.bah.ossem.WordcountMRUnitTest
Configuring TestNG with:
org.apache.maven.surefire.testng.conf.TestNG652Configuator@428aaed5
Tests run: 0, Failures: 0, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 0.727
...
[INFO] BUILD SUCCESS
...
Furthermore, I can run normal JUnit tests with the mvn test command just fine.
Needed to add this to my pom.xml file:
<build>
<pluginManagement>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.16</version>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</pluginManagement>
</build>
Answer came from: Maven not running Test
