If JUnit under Maven shows red, you can try the following solutions:

  1. Make sure the JUnit dependency has been correctly added to the pom.xml file. Verify if the version and scope of JUnit are correct.
<dependency>
   <groupId>junit</groupId>
   <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
   <version>4.13.1</version>
   <scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
  1. In a Maven project, right-click on the project and choose “Maven” -> “Reload Project” to reload the Maven project.
  2. Clean up the Maven project and rebuild it. You can try using the following commands to clean and build the project:
mvn clean
mvn install
  1. Check the configuration of the IDE. Sometimes the IDE may have issues, so you can try restarting it or updating the IDE plugins.
  2. Check whether JUnit dependencies conflict with other dependencies. You can use the “mvn dependency:tree” command to examine the project’s dependency tree and see if there are multiple versions of JUnit or other conflicting dependencies.
  3. Clear the JUnit cache in the local Maven repository. You can try deleting the JUnit-related directories in the local Maven repository and then rebuilding the project.

These methods usually work to fix the issue of JUnit errors in Maven. If the problem persists, providing more detailed error information or code examples can help in resolving the issue more effectively.
