How to run JUnit tests for Java from the command line [duplicate]

Answer 1

You need to make sure the classpath contains

1. Your JAR
2. The JUnit JAR

You can set the class path by using the -cp flag to the java command. Then you can use junit.textui.TestRunner to run the tests.

If you're using Linux (note the use of : as the path separator between jars)

java -cp /path/to/my.jar:/path/to/junit.jar junit.textui.TestRunner com.mypackage.MyClassWithUnitTests

If you're using Windows (note the use of ; as the path separator between jars)

java -cp /path/to/my.jar;/path/to/junit.jar junit.textui.TestRunner com.mypackage.MyClassWithUnitTests
