But Intelliji does not find the maven plugin cobertura-maven-plugin, neither the other plugins in the reporting section

回答1:

For the IDE to be able to resolve the plugin - it must be located inside the local Maven repository. Does it exist there?

To make sure the plugin of the specified version has been downloaded into local Maven repository - you can execute any maven goal of this plugin. Then Maven will download it from the remote Maven repository into your local Maven repository and IDE will be able to resolve it.
