Description

A while ago we separated our tests in standard junit- and integration tests using junit's category mechanism: Example Article.

The goal: When maven 'package' is used, then all tests annotated with @category are skipped. When using 'install' they are executed. If in either build a junit test fails, the build fails.

So now we switched to Deltaspike's CdiTestRunner. And now the above mechanism doesn't work anymore:

1. The integration tests are always executed ignoring the build phase (package, install...)
2. If the integration fails the build doesn't fail.

We were using the "RunWith" before so I think it is not a junit problem. I did some research but only gradle seemed to had a similar problem (https://github.com/gradle/gradle/issues/3189)

Any ideas how to get it to work again?
