I am trying to run PDE unit tests using ant in 3.5, somewhat similiar to this article:

http://www.eclipse.org/articles/printable.php?file=Article-P DEJUnitAntAutomation/index.html

I can build the test client but when I start the client I always get this error:

java.lang.RuntimeException: Application "org.eclipse.test.coretestapplication" could not be found in the registry. The applications available are: ch.sbb.rcsd.client.application.application, org.eclipse.ant.core.antRunner, org.eclipse.equinox.app.error, org.eclipse.update.core.standaloneUpdate, org.eclipse.update.core.siteOptimizer.

at org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.Main.main(Main.java:1287)
at org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main.main(Main.java:34)

To do this I have created a feature based product which has dependencies on org.eclips.test, org.eclipse.rcp and a feature that I have defined.

My test feature basically mimics the application 100%, in other words the same plugins and fragments are listed in the plugins tab.

When I validate the product "almost everything" validates. It has some problems with internal packages from org.eclipse.equinox.internal.*

Does anyone have a clue what I might be doing wrong?

Many thanks in advance.

Hi Kent,
Unfortunately, you have the wrong news group. I would suggest the
Eclipse PDE news group.
