maven: Execution default-testResources of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:3.2.0:testResources failed: Unable to load the mojo 'testResources'

 >PROBLEM

The pom.xml shows the following error message:

Execution default-testResources of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:3.2.0:testResources failed: Unable to load the mojo 'testResources' 

(or one of its required components) from the plugin 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:3.2.0' 

(org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-resources-plugin:3.2.0:testResources:default-testResources:process-test-resources)
