I have MyEclipse’s build path set up to use JUnit 3.8. However, when I try to run a JUnit Test Class OR Test Suite, the following error message pops up:

Cannot find ‘org.junit.Test’ on project build path. JUnit 4 tests can only be run if JUnit 4 is on the build path.

Below is my .classpath file contents and my system setup. Thanks for your help.

If you remove your JUnit library and instead going to the Libraries tab and hit Add Library, then select the JUnit library, you should be able to add the 3.8.1 libraries from there and I believe that should let Eclipse no what version of JUnit you will be using.

I tried what you said and still get the same error. Thanks for your help.

SS,
I created a sample web project with Struts and JSTL capabilities added along with JUnit 3.8.1 libraries added. I created a single class and a single test case and everything seems to run fine. Can you download and import this project and try and run the MyClassTest class and see if things work? You can grab it here.

We actually tried creating a new project and going from there. The new project doesn’t have any problems running JUnit tests. It uses JUnit-3.8 and everything works great.

We are trying to avoid having to migrate the code in our exisiting project to a new project.

Anything else we can try? Could there be a place in one of the MyEclipse workbench property files that JUnit 4 is specified in?

Thanks for your help.

SS,
I think what is going on is just a simple configuration mishap. If you click the down arrow on your Run menu, and go to Run As…, you can select your run configuration for your Ant test case, and on the first page you select the Runner (JUnit 3/4) that you want to use. Make sure that is set to 3.

Riyad,
that did it! We were spinning our wheels quite a bit with this. I never noticed that setting being there. Thanks for your help!

SS, I’m glad that helped.
