Ecipse 3.3 -> 3.4 Junit Problems [message #255049]

I recently downloaded Ganymede JEE distro from the eclipse website. After
installing and creating a brand-new workspace, i imported a project from
my 3.3 workspace.

Once i did this, i tried to run a JUnit (4.4) test, and it gave me a
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException. The class that wasn't found was the
JUnit test class! I tried several things which narrowed it down to this:

If i create a brand-new project within v3.4, JUnit works without a hitch.

If i import a project from a 3.3 workspace or (and this is important) if i
check-out a project from CVS that was developed under Eclipse 3.3, I
continue to get the error.

It seems that I can not run any JUnit 4.4 from any project that wasn't
created by Ganymede.

This is very serious issue as all of my old projects were developed under
3.3, and but none of my test cases will run in 3.4.

Has anyone else experienced this or has found a solution to it? Any help
is much appreciated. Thank you.

It sounds like the JUnit jar files aren't on your runtime classpath. I
haven't use the JUnit launch mechanism much, but I believe that there
should be a JUnit launch configuration to run your tests. See if you
can add the jar files to the Launch Config.

The JUnit jar files are on the runtime classpath. I had, in the same
workspace, the project created within Eclipse 3.3 and 3.4, their Run
configurations were identical as far as I could tell, as well as all of
their project meta-data files (.project, .classpath, .settings/).

The 3.4 project successfully ran the test methods, where the 3.3 imported
project did not.

If you can reproduce this I suggest to file a bug report with steps to
reproduce.

The problem appears not to be Eclipse, but the m2eclipse plug-in.
