Play 2.4 Eclipse and Unit Tests fail with java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

[Gaurav Kalmady]

Hi,

   I created a new sample play 2.4 application like so https://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.4.x/NewApplication. I want to integrate it with Eclipse (I am using Luna).

I followed the instructions here https://www.playframework.com/documentation/2.4.x/IDE and was able to create a eclipse project for my play app that I imported in to eclipse.

Now when I attempt to run the unit tests I get

Class not found ApplicationTest

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: ApplicationTest

What am I missing?

Thanks

A couple of observations.

1. Initially the target/scala-2.11 directory contained only a class directory.

2. I ran the tests on command line via activator test. This succeeded. Also now there is a target/scala-2.11/test-classes directory.

Eclipse continues to fail as described in spite of the newly formed test-classes directory.

3. Now that the test-classes directory is here, I deleted my eclipse project and recreated it using activator eclipse.

The new project too has the same issue.

Thanks
