IllegalAccessErrors Running JUnit Tests During Build [message #634068]

I have a plugin (org.a.test) that is used to test another plugin (org.a). Both plugins have the same Java packages defined. The classes being tested in org.a have "protected" and package private methods. When I do a build using Tycho both jars (org.a, org.a.test) build fine.

However, during the build when the JUnit tests are run I get a runtime java.lang.IllegalAccessError whenever a test plugin class calls one of these protected methods. All the tests run successfully within Eclipse using the JUnit runner. I have Eclipse's compiler setting for "forbidden reference access rules" set to be an error.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi there,

I was having such an issue with "JUnit Plugin Tests" in Eclipse not in Maven-Tycho. But i got exactly the same error message. I was able to resolve this by adding "org.junit" to my plugin dependencies in the manifest. I suspect something like maven-tycho cannot get the right dependency while your eclipse can (getting it from somewhere elese).

Cheers

Phil
