I have similar experience. I upgraded a couple of projects to JUnit 4.8.1 (from 
3.x) in the past few months. Leaving the old tests as-is has worked fine, while 
allowing me to write new tests in the new style, just as you propose.

Seems like the best approach to me.

I can confirm that (starting from JUnit 4.7 if I remember correctly). I usually 
upgrade all my projects to JUnit 4. This way I can write new tests using JUnit 
4 style and keep old tests with JUnit 3 style.

change the dependencies to JUnit 4 at least.  I understand the
