jMockit Report generation Fails with maven-surefire-plugin

[mlr28]

My project is a multi-module project.

I am trying to generate a test coverage report with jmockit within maven-surefire-plugin

When I build my maven project from the base directory : mvn clean package or mvn clean install, I get the following error

[INFO] Results:

Below is my jMockit Coverage configured in maven-surefire-plugin

        <configuration>
            <argLine>
                -javaagent:"${settings.localRepository}"/org/jmockit/jmockit/${jmockit.version}/jmockit-${jmockit.version}.jar
            </argLine>

                <coverage-excludes>com.package.api.constant.*,com.package.api.dto.*,com.package.api.model.*</coverage-excludes>

            <testFailureIgnore>true</testFailureIgnore>
        </configuration>
    </plugin>

Please let me know what else I need to do to generate report in defined Output directory.

Note : Running All tests from Intellij Run generated html report but not during Maven build.

Thanks in Advance
