    Description

      In a reactor project I would like to run only a subset of JUnit (4.12) tests tagged with @Category
      But the class which defines the category is not present in the dependency tree of every module.
      I get this error.
      I would like to simply skip these modules, maybe in conjunction with the failIfNoTest=false option
