I run it under IntelliJ 2008.1, using maven 3.6.1 and surefire plugin in version 2.22.1

I have following dependencies in pom:

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.junit.jupiter/junit-jupiter-api -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId>
    <artifactId>junit-jupiter-api</artifactId>
    <version>5.5.0</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId>
    <artifactId>junit-jupiter-engine</artifactId>
    <version>5.5.0</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.junit.jupiter/junit-jupiter-params -->

</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.junit.platform</groupId>
    <artifactId>junit-platform-launcher</artifactId>
    <version>1.5.0</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>

...

<plugins>
    <plugin>
        <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
    </plugin>
    <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
    </plugin>
</plugins>

Recently I wasn't able to run any test cases but now after some configuration tries I receive this error.

Remove junit-platform-launcher, junit-jupiter-engine and junit-jupiter-api.

Add junit-jupiter. (junit-jupiter is aggregator)
