JUnit Tests are executed via IDE but can't execute via maven job on Jenkins

Question

I have created a Maven project and set it up on Jenkins as a maven build. When I execute mvn clean test, it does not recognize my tests.

Here is test file name:

validateDB.java

It has one @Test annotation.

Answer 1

Maven surefire plugin will recognize a test class that has name starting with

Test or TestCase

or ending with

Test

So, rename your class and it will work.
