Description

When using

<forkNode implementation="org.apache.maven.plugin.surefire.extensions.SurefireForkNodeFactory"/>

and -Dmaven.surefire.debug you see the message

Listening for transport dt_socket at address: 5005

only after you have connected the debugger, which defeats the whole point of this message and leaves the user under the impression that test execution is stuck before opening the debug port.

In "legacy" mode the message is displayed as expected (before connecting the debugger).
