java.lang.Exception: No runnable methods exception in running JUnits


I am trying to run the JUnit on my Linux command prompt /opt/junit/ contains the necessary JARS(hamcrest-core-1.3.jar and junit.jar) and class files and I am using the following command to run the JUnit:

java -cp hamcrest-core-1.3.jar:junit.jar:. org.junit.runner.JUnitCore  TestRunner

TestJunit class:

import org.junit.Test;
import static org.junit.Assert.assertEquals;
public class TestJunit {
   @Test
   public void testAdd() {
      String str= "Junit is working fine";
      assertEquals("Junit is working fine",str);
   }
}

TestRunner:

import org.junit.runner.JUnitCore;
import org.junit.runner.Result;
import org.junit.runner.notification.Failure;

public class TestRunner {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      Result result = JUnitCore.runClasses(TestJunit.class);
      for (Failure failure : result.getFailures()) {
         System.out.println("fail ho gaya"+failure.toString());
      }
      System.out.println("passed:"+result.wasSuccessful());
   }
}  

I am getting the following exception on running this

Solution

  • You will get this exception, if you use the JUnit 4.4 core runner to execute a class that has no "@Test" method. Kindly consult the link for more info.
