While getting more people testing is definitely good, newer developers may struggle with the junit setup and be turned off if they can't get a build without junit working. I know I struggled with the whole java build process and junit when I got started on this. I was an experienced developer, but not a <b>java</b> developer at the time. So I would suggest the former option.
