Why not complete < JUnit 5.0.0

there are still a lot of projects on 4.x

Not a great idea. I think maven itself has legacy tests based on JUnit 3

I'll note the next time I see one. They usually show up in some of the older plugins, Perhaps someone could whip up a shell script to look for test files that don't contain @Test across all the repos.

Please note junit 4.x code is still supported but junit version as dependency needs to be at least 4.12 it's only the proprieraty surefire runner code which is removed
