How do I instantiate my test class from an ut.* package (for test console)?

[Lars Raeder]

Hi,

I have a plugin class in src/main/java/com/example/impl/TargetImpl that implements the interface in src/main/java/com/example/api/TargetApi.

In my unit test in src/test/java/ut/com/example/TargetTest I use

TargetImpl x = new TargetImpl();

This works fine with atlas-unit-test, but when running it from the test console UI, I get java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com.example.impl.TargetImpl

What am I doing wrong? How can I make the OSGi container grant access to com.example.impl?

Did you find a workaround or fix for this?

Well, I use some bad hacking to work around it. It is probable too complicated. I set up a service in the test plugin. If the main plugin starts up and detects the presence of that service, it asks it about the objects that need to be instantiated by the test plugin and provides java.lang.reflect.Constructor objects for them. The tests can then ask the service for instances and they are created by the service using reflection.

Hi. Would it be a big problem for you to show me how exactly you did it? I have similar issue and I'm just curious.
