What CLASSPATH Settings Are Needed to Run JUnit?
It doesn't matter if you run your JUnit tests from a command line, from an IDE, or from "ant",
you must define your CLASSPATH settings correctly. Here is what recommended by the JUnit FAQ
with some minor changes:
To run your JUnit tests, you'll need the following elemements in your CLASSPATH:
- The JUnit JAR file.
- Location of your JUnit test classes.
- Location of classes to be tested.
- JAR files of class libraries that are required by classes to be tested.
If attempting to run your tests results in a NoClassDefFoundError, then something is missing from your CLASSPATH.
If you are running your JUnit tests from a command line on a Windows system:
set CLASSPATH=c:\A\junit-4.4.jar;c:\B\test_classes;
c:\B\target_classes;c:\D\3rd_party.jar
If you are running your JUnit tests from a command line on a Unix (bash) system:
export CLASSPATH=/A/junit-4.4.jar:/B/test_classes:
/C/target_classes:/D/3rd_party.jar
