Description

Using the test project at maven-surefire/surefire-integration-tests/src/test/resources/junit47-parallel-with-suite one can see that the actual tests do not get run in parallel. This is due to the project running a top-level suite.

I have researched this a little bit, and it seems like this does not even work with regular JUnit (even without our special runners), so the problem may be theirs.
