👓 What did you see?

I am following the 10-minute tutorial.

According to the tutorial, I should see:

Failed scenarios:
hellocucumber/is_it_friday_yet.feature:4 # Sunday isn't Friday
1 Scenarios (1 failed)3 Steps (1 failed, 2 passed)

But I am seeing:

[ERROR] Failures:
[ERROR]   expected: <Nope> but was: <null>
[INFO]
[ERROR] Tests run: 1, Failures: 1, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0

I can't see how many Scenarios and steps I have and how many passed and failed.

✅ What did you expect to see?

[ERROR] Failures:
[ERROR]   expected:
 <Nope> but was: <null>
 [INFO]
 [ERROR] Tests run: 1, Failures: 1, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0

I can't see how many Scenarios and steps I have and how many passed and failed.

📦 Which tool/library version are you using?

node v20.14.0
JUnit 5

🔬 How could we reproduce it?

This is is_it_friday_yet.feature:

Feature: Is it Friday yet?Everybody wants to know when it's Friday
Scenario: Sunday isn't FridayGiven today is SundayWhen I ask whether it's Friday yetThen I should be told "Nope"

This is Stepdefs.java:

package hellocucumber;
import io.cucumber.java.en.*;
import static org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.assertEquals;

class IsItFriday {static String isItFriday(String today) 
{return null;}
}

public class Stepdefs {private String today;private String actualAnswer;
@Given("today is Sunday")
public void today_is_Sunday() {
    today = "Sunday";
}

@When("I ask whether it's Friday yet")
public void i_ask_whether_it_s_Friday_yet() {
    actualAnswer = IsItFriday.isItFriday(today);
}

@Then("I should be told {string}")
public void i_should_be_told(String expectedAnswer) {
    assertEquals(expectedAnswer, actualAnswer);
}
}

And this is the RunCucumberTest.java:

@Suite @IncludeEngines("cucumber") 
@SelectPackages("hellocucumber") 
@ConfigurationParameter(key = PLUGIN_PROPERTY_NAME, value = "pretty") 

public class RunCucumberTest { 
}

When I run mvn test I cant see how many Scenarios and steps I have and how many passed and failed.
