Description

**[Dietrich Schulten](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=dschulten)** opened **[SUREFIRE-1736](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-1736?redirect=false)** and commented

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-1546 introduced support for JUnit5 DisplayName annotations.

It seems however that display names on `@Nested` test classes are not evaluated yet.

Research direction

Start by reading SUREFIRE-1546 and comparing its JUnit 5 display-name support with the runner's handling of @Nested test classes. Done means display names declared on nested test classes are evaluated and used by the runner.
