I am trying to write a plugin that needs its launcher to extend the
JUnitLaunchConfiguration. Unfortunately, the JUnitLaunchConfiguration uses
project.findType(className)
to the IType of the test class to be launched. In my case the test class
I want to launch is not a part of the project but is in the plugin jar.
Is there a way for me to get to the IType if the class file is in the
plugin and not the java project ?

You are correct about the fact that project.findType does find the
classes in the project. But in my case, the class file is not on the
project's classpath but is in the plugins classpath.
The project just has an XML file. What I am trying to do is that when
the use right click's the file to run it (yes run an XML file) the
plugin should use the XML file to create test cases and run them. The
actual test class is on the plugin's classpath and I dont want the users
to have to unnecessarily include jar files in their project because they
are not writing java code.

If the class file is on the plugins classpath, then PDE should have put the
corresponding jar file on your project classpath through the PDE Container
and so, you should see this jar under the 'Plug-in Dependencies' folder in
the Package Explorer... Can you see it there?
If you do not see it, then I assume that the nature of your project is not
correct. What kind of nature did you intend to apply to your project:
Java, Plug-in, other?

I do not see it on the Plug-in Dependencies folder. But I guess that is
because I am planning to use the Java nature.

So if you are using a Java Nature, what did you mean by "The actual test class is on the plugin's classpath" ?
