Run/Debug launch of SWTBot Test fails [message #1123700]

Is anyone having an issue where error message "Required plug-in 'org.eclipse.pde.junit.runtime' could not be found." is being displayed when trying to Run/Debug a SWTBot Test? I've seen this using Kepler 4.3 and Indigo 3.7.2.

I can't seem to get past this issue. Any help would be appreciated. This question has been asked before, but there no answer that works. Search stackoverflow.com for "required-plug-in-org-eclipse-pde-junit-runtime-could-not-be-found".

Which version of SWTBot are you using? How did you install it?

Also where do you get this error message? In logs of IDE, in logs of
runtime application, in UI...?
It looks like you target-platform configuration is missing something. If
you go in Debug Configurations, look for this debug config, go in tab
"Plugins" you'll see a "Validate Plugins" button. Click it and check
whether it tells you what you're missing.

I installed SWTBot version 2.1.1.201307101628 from the update site SWTBot - http://download.eclipse.org/technology/swtbot/releases/latest/.

I get the error message when I press the Debug icon in Eclipse. After that, a popup appears immediatly which says:

'Launching MyFirstTest' has encountered a problem.

Required plug-in 'org.eclipse.pde.junit.runtime' could not be found.

When I go into Debug Configurations->Plug-ins tab, and click on Validate Plug-ins, the following problems are detected:

- org.apache.xmlrpc
  - Missing Constraint: Import-Package: javax.xml.bind; version="0.0.0"

I've attached the Eclipse error log and my configuration. Thanks for you help.

It looks like the issue is not in your Test configuration, but rather in
your IDE. Can you see the "org.eclipse.pde.junit.runtime" plugin
installed in your IDE? Does "Run as Plugin Test" command work?

The plugin "org.eclipse.pde.junit.runtime" is not installed in the IDE. I could not find it in the plgins directory under Eclipse.

Running the test as a Junit plug-in test or as a SWTBot test result in the same error message, "Required plug-in 'org.eclipse.pde.junit.runtime' could not be found".

Hi,
I work with this Eclipse:
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-ee-developers/keplersr1
I think you just need to download swtbot from the
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/swtbot/releases/latest/
and it's suppose to work.
