if I run

mvn -f maven-model/pom.xml -Dtest=org.apache.maven.model.DependencyTest\#testEqualsIdentity surefire:test

I see

Similarly, in a new quickstart project if I create

package test.test196655;
import junit.framework.TestCase;
public class AppTest extends TestCase {
    public void test1() {}
    public void test2() {}
}

and run

mvn -Dtest=test.test196655.AppTest#test1 test-compile surefire:test

both tests are run until I upgrade the JUnit dep from 3.8.1 to 4.8.2.

By the way the corresponding function works as expected in Ant 1.8.2.
