**Describe the bug**
When compiling any application and there is an test error or failure with a lot of caracteres, the output log doesn't show the entire log, compromising the understanding.

 

**To reproduce**
Steps to reproduce:

1.    Introduce some error to see the log
`2. Run sudo mvn test`
3.     If the error has a lot of caracteres, the log will be cut.
`4. See the cut log.`

**Expected behavior**
The entire log should be visible.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with `sudo mvn test` using a test error or failure with a long message, then trace where the Surefire test output is truncated. The work is done when the complete error or failure log is visible rather than cut off.
