ClassNotFoundException: junit.framework.TestCase c

问题:

I'm puzzled by this error:

The exception happens when I run the tests for my Xtext DSL as plugin tests (i.e. when a new Eclipse platform is started internally). This happens before any of my code is executed.

When I look at the plugin dependencies, I can see that org.junit_4.11.0.v201303080030.jar is on the classpath and I also see /.../workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.pde.core/.external_libraries/org.junit_4.11.0.v201303080030/junit.jar

So OSGis should definitely be able to resolve this dependency.

Does Xtext 2.4.3 work with JUnit 4.11 or do I have to downgrade my Eclipse install to JUnit 4.10?

回答1:

Two points

First

Check your Project Properties->Java Build Path->Libraries (tab). JUnit should be there although this usually will show up in the build.

Check you Project's Run Configurations->JUnit->Classpath (tab). JUnit should be under User Entries for your project.

Second

Check you have below plugins

org.eclipse.xtext.xbase.junit
org.junit (3.8.2)
org.junit (4.8.2)

[EDIT] This got me on the right track. To fix the error make sure you have org.junit 3.8 in the target platform!

Explanation: The error above means that Eclipse itself couldn't start. It seems that the JUnit runner has a dependency on JUnit 3.8. It won't be used but without it, the whole platform can't be initialized.

You can see whether you have the same problem by looking at the stack trace: Does it contain RemotePluginTestRunner.main?

To fix the error, add the org.junit 3.8 bundle to your target platform.

回答2:

Create a class with below code in your project-

import static org.junit.Assert.*;

import org.junit.After;
import org.junit.Before;
import org.junit.Test;


public class TestJunitLib {

@Before
public void setUp() throws Exception {
}

@After
public void tearDown() throws Exception {
}

@Test
public void test() {
    fail("Not yet implemented");
}

}

On saving if eclipse shows compiler errors. Press Ctrl + 1 ( Quick Fix ) and select one of the below-

a) Add jUnit 4 library to buildpath b) Fix project setup

If a does not appear your eclipse installation is missing jUnit 4 plugin. In that case google up on how to install jUnit in eclipse.

回答3:

You may have have unresolved issues in your pom.xml file. Open the problems view solve accordingly. Then ideally you will be able to run the test cases successfully without encountering the classnotfoundexception.

回答4:

Two possible places to check for more details:

1. Decompile the jar you mentioned (jar tvf or javap -classpath and specify the JAR), and check for its dependecies
2. Check eclipse.ini for some initialization variables that could possibly be fixed.
