Hi Tibor, Wouldn't it be enough to only build the new Junit-5 provider with source/target level 8 (if that would even be necessary) and switch the animal-sniffer to JDK 8 signatures only for that module? Or move that provider to its own repository with its own JDK 8 build... In any case, I don't think we'd have a strict requirement to move all of surefire to Java 8 bytecode only because of a new test provider - or a dependency thereof. Sure it would be cool to go full Java 8 in Surefire, but I don't think we can or should pull that off.
