Uncaught error from default dispatcher causes fatal error with JavaTestKit

Question

I\'m just getting my feet wet with Akka. I\'m trying to write a JUNit test using the JavaTestKit from this Maven dependency:

    
        &         


        

Answer 1

I figured out the issue. It had to do with an incompatible combination of the Akka and Testkit libraries (Scala 2.10 vs 2.11). The following Maven dependencies worked as expected:

    
        com.typesafe.akka
        akka-actor_2.10
        2.3.12
    
    
        com.typesafe.akka
        akka-testkit_2.10
        2.3.12
    
    
        org.scala-lang
        scala-library
        2.10.5
