Description

When having a lot of standard output in a failing test, the encoding of the resulting surefire-report XML is not consistent. The attached project shows that the encoding in 'TEST-net.test.surefireencodingtest.EncodingTest.xml' in the element <system-out> suddenly switches from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1.
Any workaround is highly appreciated...
