Groovy Eclipse can't launch junit tests - eclipse

In Eclipse with groovy plugin, I try to launch a test #Test public void testToLaunch() {...} but I have the error:
The input type of the launch configuration does not exist
What input type is in the context of launch configuration? (can't find such an entry in launch configuration window)
Note: I try sts 2.8.1 and e3.7

This happens normally when the folder in which test case is present is not a source folder, please check this post as well.
Hope that helps!

This can also happen if there is a problem with the groovy class. A few things to check:
1) Ensure that the class name exactly matches the filename (filename = MyTest.groovy)
package com.mypackage;
import groovy.util.GroovyTestCase;
class MyTest extends GroovyTestCase {}
2) Ensure that the package defined in the file matches the package the file is actually in.

In Eclipse you can do
Right click -> properties -> Java build path
Notice test folder is not available in sources. Add it.
Add folder -> Select test -> OK
Now rerun you unit test cases.

This happened to me, and I just restarted Eclipse (GGTS) and everything was fine again.

I had a spelling mistake which lead to that error message. My test class file name was named JUnit5Test.java (with upper U) and the class itself was named Junit5Test (with lower u).
I was using Spring Tool Suite 4 (4.8.0.RELEASE).

This also happened to me. But these tests are written in Groovy. The problem I encountered has to do with how the IDE (Eclipse Kepler, Java EE) first opens a Groovy project after executing "mvn eclipse:eclipse".
The Build Paths do not reference the Groovy source files correctly.
To resolve, I:
Right-click on the project, select "Build Path" > "Configure Build Path..."
Select "Source" tab
For test and src folders (.../src/main/groovy, and .../src/test/groovy)
make sure "**/*.groovy" is set as "Inclusion patterns", not "**/*.java"
Hope this saves time for someone.
Cheers!

I had the same error message when I head the test-class duplicated both in the main Java source folder and the testsrc folder. Removing the incorrectly placed one in the main Java source folder solved the problem for me.

2019 Update: This drove me crazy for days even with latest Eclipse and fresh installs (Mac, Grails 4, Gradle 5.1.1, Java 8). Some above examples led me to the solution.
My problem was more that the code I was testing included a mix of groovy and java src/main code. It gave me NoClassDefFound on the .groovy classes when I ran my Spec as JUnit.
Solution: I had to modify my Run/Debug Configuration to include build/classes/groovy/main. Then it worked. It's a little bit of a pain to remember to that for every new Configuration, but, it keeps me going. I hope it helps you.

Whenever you create a Junit test in eclipse, make sure your Junit test file is inside src/test/java folder.

I had a similar problem. Like others have already pointed out, it was about source folders. I had to change my source folder setup. There was an empty src-folder that disappeared after I right-clicked on it and selected 'remove from build path' from Build path menu. After that I right-clicked both java/src and java/test folders and chose Build path > Use as a source folder. And suddenly my tests were JUnited!
In similar situations I'd advice to remove all source folders from build path and add them again when you're sure you've got the right ones. Your source folders should be those with Java package structure under them. In case of proj/java/test/com/stackoverflow/main it's the 'test' folder.

This is what resolved for me (Eclipse Oxygen). I had already done what Robert suggested in the earlier post. I was still getting the error. When I went to edit the configuration for junit launch, I saw that the Test Class field just had the class name. I had to hit the Search button to the right. The Test Class field now had the complete name for the class
com.mycompany.mypackage.MyClass
With this I am able to run the JUnit. But I have to keep fixing this for every run.

Found another way to cause this message. The cause turned out to be an empty copy of MyTest.java under src/main/java, as well as the real one under src/test/java.
Think the empty file was a hangover from some refactoring and was oddly causing no compile errors either. Deleting it enabled the test to run again.

Spark SQL has no SparkSqlParser.scala file when compiling in intelliJ idea

I have installed spark-hadoop env in my Red Hat 64. And I also want to read and write code in spark source code project in intelliJ idea. I have downloaded spark source code and make everything ready. But I had some errors when compiling spark project in IntelliJ idea.
Here are errors:
/home/xuch/IdeaProjects/spark/sql/catalyst/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/catalyst/CatalystQI.scala
Error:(809, 34) not found: value SparkSqlParser
case ast if ast.tokenType == SparlSqlParser.TinyintLiteral =>
Error:(812, 34) not found: value SparkSqlParser
case ast if ast.tokenType == SparlSqlParser.SmallintLiteral =>
... ...
But actually I did not find a file named SparkSqlParser.scala in the whole project neither a scala class named SparkSqlParser.
However, I had searched the web for some files named SparkSqlParser.scala, but they don't have attribute like "TinyintLiteral", "SmallintLiteral", etc.
Here are the files link:
https://github.com/yjshen/zzzzobspk/blob/master/sql/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/SparkSQLParser.scala
https://apache.googlesource.com/spark/+/c152dde78f73d5ce3a483fd60a47e7de1f1916da/sql/catalyst/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/catalyst/SparkSQLParser.scala
I meet the same problem. Here is my solution:
Download the antlr4 (i.e. antlr v4) plugin of IntelliJ. Then you can see the file "spark-2.0.1\sql\catalyst\src\main\antlr4\org\apache\spark\sql\catalyst\parser\SqlBase.g4" can be recognized by IntelliJ IDEA.
Navigate to View->Tool Windows->Maven Projects tab. select the project "Spark Project Catalyst". Right click on it. Then select "Generate sources and update folders"
After that you can see some files added into the "spark-2.0.1\sql\catalyst\target\generated-sources\antlr4"
Then you can build success of the project.
Hope it can help you.
None of the advice here worked for me. I noticed, however, that the generated code depends on Antlr 3.x while Antlr 4.x is what is in the dependencies (mvn dependecy:tree). I don't know why this was the case. Maybe because I had earlier built it from the command line (?).
Anyway, try cleaning your Catalyst sub-project then rebuild the autogenerated sources. To do this in IntelliJ, go to View -> Tools Window -> Maven Projects.
Then navigate to the "Spark Project Catalyst" in the "Maven Project" tab.
Navigate to clean -> clean:clean and double click it. Navigate to Plugins -> antlr4 -> antlr4:antlr4 and double click it.
Now, you'll see the autogenerated sources of the Antlr classes are different and they should compile. YMMV.
1) First build your Spark from command line using build instructions given in http://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/building-spark.html#building-with-buildmvn
2) Then check
$SPARK_HOME/sql/catalyst/target/generated-sources/antlr3/org/apache/spark/sql/catalyst/parser folder.
Some of the generated classes like SparkSqlLexer.java is there.
List of classes it generates are
SparkSqlLexer.java[enter link description here][1]
SparkSqlParser.java
SparkSqlParser_ExpressionParser.java
SparkSqlParser_FromClauseParser.java
SparkSqlParser_IdentifiersParser.java
SparkSqlParser_KeywordParser.java
SparkSqlParser_SelectClauseParser.java
3) Open Module Settings. Click on spark-catalyst module. Go to Source tab in the right. Make target/generated-source as a source folder.
I also faced similar problem when I updated my fork to latest master. Unfortunately, could not find a way to make it work from IDEA. What I did is compiled the project from command line. It generated the antlr classes which is required. I then added the generated-source target/generated-source/antlr as source directory. After that I could run tests from Idea. Ideally Idea generate source should have generated the code. Need to check more why it did not. May be because I have maven3.3.3 configured.
I have did as the intruction from Rishitesh Mishra and get stuck in the first step. I have always errors when executing "build/mvn -Pyarn -Phadoop-2.4 -Dhadoop.version=2.4.0 -DskipTests clean package".
I have both tried on source code from https://spark.apache.org and fork on github.
I have attached the log screenshot in a new answer as following.

Running tests on Intellij: Class not found

I'm evaluating IntelliJ (13.0.2 133.696) and cannot get jUnit tests to run from within the IDE.
My project is a multi module gradle project and uses scala.
Test class is located under src/test/scala/xxx/xxxxx/xxx/xxxx/xxxxx and everytime i try to run from IDE i get the same error:
Class not found: "xxx.xxxxx.xxx.xxxx.xxxxx.AccountRepositoryTest"
Test class is nothing fancy, simple jUnit test:
#RunWith(classOf[SpringJUnit4ClassRunner])
#ContextConfiguration(classes = Array(classOf[DataConfig], classOf[SettingsConfig]))
class AccountRepositoryTest extends AssertionsForJUnit {
I've found a related question Cannot run Junit tests from IDEA 13.0 IDE for imported gradle projects , but the provided fix (upgrade to 13.0.2) does not work.
I've even tried upgrading to the latest EAP, still the same issue.
I looked through some of these answers, fussed with Project Settings, tried a few things, etc. and nothing worked. (Full disclosure: I'm not trying to juggle Gradle here; I'm just using Maven, but I don't see what this has to do with Gradle.)
I'm using IDEA 14.
What I found to work, because it just simply seemed IntelliJ had lost its way, was this:
$ rm -rf .idea project-name.iml
Then relaunched IntelliJ and did File -> Open -> navigate to the root of my project, etc.--in short, just recreated my project.
IntelliJ got over it. I may have messed something up originally in this project as I had done plenty of refactoring both package- and class names and I had even changed the project name. (It was probably my fault it happened.)
I had this same problem, and in my case the problem was due to the "Project compiler output" path being left blank in Project Settings.
To fix it I created a classes directory in my project root, and set Project compiler output to the absolute path (use the … button to browse).
Go to Project Settings -> Project.
Fill in Project compiler output:
ex. D:\repo\Project\out
Go to Module -> Paths
Make sure that:
output path is like D:\repo\Project\out\production
test output path like D:\repo\Project\out\test
Should work!
Simply 'Build > Rebuild Project' worked for me.
Check Run/Debug configuration for that test
"Use classpath and SDK of module:" should point into your module.
In meantime you module must have a Scala facet and that class must be inside the
"Test source Folders".
You can try to invalidate the cache and restart. That usually will resolve issues when you add new dependencies / classes.
Make sure your test class package and the class for which you are writing test case are not same. If both test case and the class is having the same package, the compiler will look in the src folder and ignores the test folder.
I had the same problem. I changed a path in Module Settings -> Modules -> Paths -> Test output path to my directory for test classes bytecode (exclude output paths on). Now everything works!
IDEA restart solved the issue for me.
Just make shure the folder of your test file marked as a test folder in Intellij IDEA. That worked for me.
If you have multiple directories with source files with the same name, add package to your class source file, if not present!
I had the same problem, Intellij wasn't finding the Test output path. Running the regular application had no problems however.
For me, the fix was changing from inherited project compile paths, to using module compile output paths.
Project Settings -> Modules -> (Your module) -> Paths (tab)
Change the radio select button to "Use module compile output path". For me the autofilled suggestion worked, you may need to manually put in the correct Test Output Path if the autosuggestion doesn't work. Remember to apply the settings change.
As of for gradle project X, deleting both:
X/build
X/out
and running tests again helped me resolve this issue.
Try this in this order:
rebuild project (+strangely, select another app, reselect idea for context-switch, seems to force files reload ?!)
invalidate cache/restart idea
reimport project /create a new project
Just renaming the file to something different and back worked for me :)
modify the content in tag of the module's .iml file just as the following. It works for me.
<content url="file://$MODULE_DIR$">
<sourceFolder url="file://$MODULE_DIR$/src/main/java" isTestSource="false" />
<sourceFolder url="file://$MODULE_DIR$/src/test/java" isTestSource="true" />
<excludeFolder url="file://$MODULE_DIR$/target" />
</content>
Had the same problem, fixed it by recreating the project in a directory path that had no spaces, colons, periods or other special characters anywhere in the full path. Apparently IntelliJ can be finicky about the project path.
My issue remained after building, clean and rebuild, closing and opening the project (using intellij), project compiler output was correct; in the end I just deleted the folder out from my project directory. Note that my issue was only on the newly added Junit calling a newly added method. The rest of Junits were working fine.
For me it was that one test was failing and the error was misguiding.
So:
I re-imported module in intellij as standalone project
Run the test
Fix test issues
Run modules again and it started to work.
tl;dr:
Missing file extensions can cause this error.
details:
In my case the test classes were missing the .java extension. E.g. a
file named UserTest instead of UserTest.java
Was hard to find, everything looked normal from within the IDE
(apparently IntelliJ rather uses the file contents to display a
corresponding symbol).
Was not an issue as long as I used mvn from command line (with the surfire plugin enabled in pom.xml) or a dedicated maven launcher configuration, but caused
the initial error message when launching using IntelliJs test or coverage menu / buttons.
Everything working as expected as once I added the missing file endings.
The root cause might be hidden in Java Compiler settings, it was so for me at least. In particular, feel free to adjust those settings using some hints from another thread.

Intellij compile failures: "is already defined as"

I've got a scala project that compiles, runs and tests fine when using SBT from the command line. However, when building the project in intellij, it seems every class in the project has this error in the event log, causing the build to fail:
SendCommandToService is already defined as case class SendCommandToService
case class SendCommandToService(service: String, commandName: String, keys: Array[String], values: Array[String])
^
For me, the reason is that both myproject/src and myproject/src/main/scala are marked as Source. So IntelliJ failed to build myproject/src/main/scala due to above errors. Unmark Source from myproject/src (in IntelliJ, File->Project structure, select myproject Module, select src folder in Sources Tab, remove it from Source in the "Add Content Root" pane) solved the problem.
It means there are two compiled classes with identical package and class name found in your classpath. One compiled by sbt, one compiled by IntelliJ.
One of the following should be able to solve the issue:
try to generate IntelliJ .iml file with sbt-idea rather than import directly.
sbt clean before click Build -> Rebuild in IntelliJ
when rebuilding with IntelliJ, make sure sbt is not running
I ran into this issue today on IntelliJ 2021.2.1 and according to this page it's some issue with IntelliJ's incremental compiler for Scala, so the solution is to change the "Incrementality Type" from "IDEA" to "Zinc" in Preferences -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Compiler -> Scala Compiler
For me, the solution was to double check the source folders in each of my modules in IntelliJ.
File > Project Structure > Modules and for each module, double check that the Source Folders only contain your intended folders, e.g. src/main/scala, and do not contain any generated sources (e.g. target/scala-2.12/src_managed/main.
I had the same problem and #Max is right, there is a conflict with the compiled classes, but the solution provided didn't work for me. It turns out that I was using sbt-idea to generate the IDEA project structure as a workaround of an Intellij IDEA 14 + scala plugin bug on the SBT import, that is not fixed yet at the time I write this.
In order to fix it, I had to remove src_managed/main/controller that was in conflict with src_managed/main in the Module settings because of an sbt-idea bug. So double-check your module source folders and make sure you don't have subfolders in conflict with a parent folder already declared as source.
You need to change "Settings -> Build,Execution,Deployment -> Scala Compiler -> Compile order" from "Mixed" to "Java then Scala".
If you have compile the project previous, you should first run "sbt clean".
I had a similar issue repeatedly both within Idea and without: plain SBT.
It turned out that CVS stores copies of some *.scala files in subdirectory CVS/Base, which SBT apparently tries to compile. The problem went away when I deleted the CVS subdirectories.
Problem is caused by duplicated line in .idea/modules/<your_project_name>.iml file. Check if you do not have duplicated <source_folder> tag.
In my case I had the same problem with all classes in src/test/scala path, and after removal duplicated tag for this path, project build fine.
Do you have any other files in your project with an SendCommandToService in them?
You could try renaming it to something else, see if that works
If you want to keep the same names, you can put them into separate packages.
Or have them in different encapsulating objects
object traitdemo{
object Ex1{
...
}
}
object otherdemo{
object Ex1 {
...
}
}
that will work even in the same file
In my case problem solved by change ScalaTest template configuration in Idea. I select use sbt, disable print info, remove build before launch.
I like to use SBT for clean/package/test on specific module. I also use mixed Java/Scala classes in test (but I replace compile order to Java than Scala).
At least now I can test from IDE withot this error.
PS: Now I disable use sbt. My tests work fine (but I'm not sure, that they will work).
PPS: New tests not runs before compilation. It is disadvantage of removing build (and, maybe, of disabling use sbt). But this extra build cause problem with dublication, as I think
File -> Invalid Caches/Restart worked for me. All other answers here did not.
After the sbt compile I had to mark the folder as Generated Sources Root because I needed those files for compilation.
I'll just add mine to the list in case anyone else made this beginner mistake: I temporarily "saved my progress" by doing cp Foo.scala Foo-save.scala, forgetting that sbt would try to compile all the .scala files in the directory.
(I don't know, I guess I was thinking of programming languages where any file not explicitly included was ignored ...)
Of course, since both the main file and the "temporary backup" file defined the same classes ... yeah.
I had the same error message and it turned out that IntelliJ for some reason created duplicate copies of some existing source files. For example I had a file Attribute.scala that was tracked with git and then there was an untracked file Atrribute 2.scala with the same contents in the same directory (which I never created). This was of course a problem, because the compiler considers them part of the project, hence the duplicate object definition error.
I am not 100% sure when this happened (I suspect it was during git rebase). So, if you run into this problem again, it's also worth checking with git status if you have some untracked files which duplicate contents of tracked files.
Remove the untracked files and the problem is solved.
Kudos to this question thread, it helped me to solve this issue.
My case is a project with the mix of Scala, Java and Avro schemas.
IDE: IntelliJ IDEA 2022.1.3
How I solved it step by step (in IntelliJ):
File -> Project Structure
Project Settings -> Modules
Now we need to fix the "source" files. I searched for target/scala-2.12/src_managed in each module and marked it like “Source directory” (blue colour).
Unmarked all other paths like target/scala-2.12/* in all modules (in my case it was target/scala-2.12/src_managed/main/compiled_avro). As an example from my project, I left only these sources in one of the modules: target/scala-2.12/src_managed , src/main/scala.
Save the changes and rebuild the project.
ADDITION: Oh, and looks like sometimes this error occurs when you compile your scala project (with avro files) outside of the IntelliJ. For example when you build a project using sbt externally and then run some tests using the IntelliJ -> class already defined error occurs (or is not a member of package error). In such case: you need to run sbt clean compile externally first and go to step #1.
this happen when you incorrectly src/main/any other folder as Sources Root. Please check if you have any such cases. If yes, then Unmark those by righclick on it. then clic one level above of your groupId starting. Lets say your package is com.company.test and com may comes under java or scala, then right click on that(java/scala) then Mark as Sources Root.
In my case, the problem was the protobuf Idea plugin:
Remove the idea protbuf plugin.
Close Idea
Remove all folders related with idea (.idea and .idea_modules)
Open Idea and Import the project again.

ScalaTest Run Configuration in Eclipse: cannot find Suite Class

Problem: I cannot setup Run Configurations to run scalatest for the Scalatests in my project.
Steps to reproduce:
Right click on Scala Suite and click on Run as -> Run configurations..
On the left, I see a configuration template for ScalaTest. I click on New and fill the Name but it cannot find the suite-class.
Note: It is mentioned here that I should see Run as -> ScalaTest - Suite but I do not see that option. I tried using context menu in the editor, and in the package explorer
Steps taken:
Using: Scala IDE for Eclipse version: 2.1.0.m3-2_09
Using SBT, assemble project, run eclipse command and then import project and dependencies into Eclipse
Project compiles. ScalaTest code compiles(scalatest_2.9.2-1.8.jar is in the 'Referenced Libraries' configuration)
I've been fighting a similar problem for the past few days; Lily / Jimbo's answer didn't quite match my situation, but helped me find the right direction.
In my case, I was using a third-party library that I'd copied in. The package names of the classes and tests matched, but the folder structure did not -- all of my tests were directly in Play's "/test" folder, rather than in folders that matched the package names. This didn't show any errors, but was broken: packages ought to match folders. When I built the right folder structure underneath test, and recompiled, the expected "Run As -> ScalaTest - Suite" options showed up.
Don't know if your problem is the same, but you might check this if you haven't already found the issue...
This could be caused by a misalignment between the scalatest and the scala eclipse IDE version. Try scalatest_2.9.0-2.0.M5b.jar or scalatest_2.10-2.0.M5b.jar. The former jar definitely works with ide 2.0.9.x so maybe the new version needs the 2.10 jar. Pick your version carefully from here
Willem's answer is what worked for me. Getting both plugins from the same update site (from the list on Scalatest's github site), seemed to work for me using Kepler.
for my case, one click on 'Reimport All Maven Projects' icon, like 'Refresh' icon, solved the problem.
Not sure if you fixed the error, but I had similar a error yesterday and was pulling my hair trying to fix it (none of the suggestions I found by googling seemed to help me). So for me, it turns out that it's as easy as package hierarchy in my test suite.
I am using the play framework, so naturally my folders look like this controllers.package1.package2.... and this applies to my test folders also.
Now my test classes however, have the package definition package1.package2..... (no "controllers" as prefix).
If I run the tests on sbt/play command prompt, it's not a problem. But running them through Eclipse would give me the problem you described.
So anyways... thought I'd share this, in case this could help.
it's a bit annoying combined with the view template compile issue in play framework. but my approach is to regenerate the eclipse project file and add view template path into the class path

Common targets are not recognized by Eclipse

I have added all common targets like (init, clean, getivy, etc) in ./common/common.xml and added:
<import file="${basedir}/common/common.xml"/>
in build.xml.
When I build the project, its working fine. But, When I open build.xml in Eclipse IDE, I see some "Red" marks underneath targets which have a dependency targets that are defined in common.xml. And when I do mouse over those Red marked targets, I see a message saying that:
Target init does not exist in this project.
To clarify, the common folder is added through svn:externals. Does this need extra configurations in Eclipse?
I have Eclipse Indigo Service Release 1 Build id: 20110916-0149 with ant 1.8.2 and the described problem with import seems to be fixed as Steve already mentioned. But the problem still exists for include and no answer seems to solve it for me. I searched the bugtracker shortly but don't have the time to be sure and test in the latest eclipse version and post a bug in the bugtracker.
Edit:
I had the problem with import again after refactoring the folder structure in the project and moving the buildfile. Although I started "Validate" on the project, the validation cached the old location and did'nt realize the move. I had to close the editor and the warning disappeared.
If your build.xml, and the common directory are at the same directory level then just try
<import file="common/common.xml" />
This works for me fine.
Use the include path ${basedir}/common/common.xml because . is probably the directory in which Eclipse is installed.
I found a post online here where someone found a workaround. You just need to make the file import not the first line in the ant build file. If you put it after a property declaration for instance the error goes away. This worked fine for me and eclipse is happy now.
The specific problem we had seemed to be because we
were importing common build.xml files into our project-specific build files, but the import was having problems when it is the first line in our
project-specific build file.
However, if I put a property task before the import, it seems to work fine. I am guessing this much force some initialization that wasn't occurring with only the <import>. I have no idea why this same issue doesn't happen in either command line with Ant 1.8, or with Eclipse using Ant 1.7.
