With Java11 and Maven, try to avoid jacoco and surefire exit error and run jacoco test coverage on Mac

This seems to be an issue related to Mac, Java11. I am trying to run source code and target as Java8 but my runtime is java 11

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11.0.6+8-LTS, mixed mode)

Apache Maven 3.5.3 (3383c37e1f9e9b3bc3df5050c29c8aff9f295297; 2018-02-24T14:49:05-05:00) Maven home: /Users/user/Documents/tools/apache-maven-3.5.3 Java version: 11.0.6, vendor: Oracle Corporation Java home: /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-11.0.6.jdk/Contents/Ho

Issue with Jacoco

Now with this configuration, I cannot run jacoco,

Error is: Skipping JaCoCo execution due to missing execution data file.

Issue with Surefire error

I also have to put this in my pom.xml to avoid an error below.

Added snippet.

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
    <!-- Remove snippet below, fix jacoco?  But get jdk11 error? -->
    <version>2.21.0</version>
    <configuration>
        <forkCount>3</forkCount>
        <reuseForks>true</reuseForks>
        <argLine>-Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m</argLine>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

Now, I get this error

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.22.2:test (default-test) on project pri-prospect-management-batch: There are test failures.
[ERROR] 
[ERROR] Please refer to /Users/user/git-main5/pri-prospect-management-batch/app/target/surefire-reports for the individual test results.
[ERROR] Please refer to dump files (if any exist) [date].dump, [date]-jvmRun[N].dump and [date].dumpstream.
[ERROR] The forked VM terminated without properly saying goodbye. VM crash or System.exit called?

[ERROR] Process Exit Code: 134
[ERROR]     at org.apache.maven.plugin.surefire.booterclient.ForkStarter.fork(ForkStarter.java:669)

So I am trying to run jacoco, java11, surefire without errors.
