Question

I have one question and would appreciate if you could help. So, I have build.xml file for ant using JUnit and everything goes fine on Windows OS. But if I copy/paste build.xml into the same java project on Mac OS it can't even build or it doesn't run tests.

Here is my build.xml ( things i changed in build.xml for running on Mac are in comments and bold):

what I don't underestand is that if I don't change classpathref from "compile.path" to "test.path" (fourth and last thing i put in comment), then i got message BUILD FAILED and that package org.junit does not exist. so if i put "test.path", i got message BUILD SUCCESSFUL, but none of the tests are done (index.html generated by JUnit says no tests are done, and also xml file generared by JUnit is empty). What do i have to change to make it work? Thanks for your help

EDIT Finally solevd after 5 days looking for mistake. Of course it was stupid one. My test file was in same directory with source code instead in test directory. Thanks evreyone for help and sorry for bothering you.

Was it helpful?

Solution

(This could have been a comment, but I need some formatting)

Run ant with -debug option. Redirect output to a file. Then look for messages with string containing 'dropping'. This indicate problem with paths and ant is ignoring certain jar as they are not found.

Secondly avoid hardcoding of path. If needed you can get values from environment variable or pass in command line property. For example -Djunit.home=/my/new/path
