fail() not working as in video, junit 5 have a different way of doing it?

In the video Craig is using junit 4 and while testing test to see if they can fail he uses fail(); @6:00 mintues

however now Junit 5 is out and that's what I formatted to and fail() no longer works as intended i was wondering if there was a new way?

Same. Switching back to junit 4 fixed it for me, but I was not able to figure out what to do with junit 5.
