    > All of these classes are in surefire-common project. Therefore it would 
be nice not to create a new object new NullConsoleReporter() but instead keep 
it as static final constant in abstract Factory in surefire-common.
    
    Agreed, I can change this.
    
    > I would say that the caller should pass non-null consistent object into 
this class TestSetRunListener via constructor
    
    Yes it would certainly be better to enforce this kinds of invariants. We 
can do it like this, but then the constructor of `TestSetRunListener` has to 
check for null parameters and throw an exception if null is passed.
    
    > If we accepted such paradigm then all such occurrences in this PR would 
have to change it.
    
    I don't understand. Change the whole surefire code base for all occurrences 
of this pattern?
