the solution  is simple  if you importing   import org junit Test    you have to run as junit 4  right click - run as- Test config-  test runner-  as junit 4

I got this error because I didn t create my own test suite correctly   Here is how I did it correctly   Put this in Foobar java   public class Foobar      public int getfifteen            return 15            Put this in FoobarTest java   import static org junit Assert    import junit framework JUnit4TestAdapter  import org junit Test  public class FoobarTest        Test     public void mytest             Foobar f   new Foobar             assert 15  f getfifteen               public static junit framework Test suite           return new JUnit4TestAdapter FoobarTest class             Download junit4-4 8 2 jar I used the one from here   http   www java2s com Code Jar j Downloadjunit4jar htm   Compile it   javac -cp     libs junit4-4 8 2 jar Foobar java FoobarTest java   Run it    el failbox  home el   java -cp     libs   org junit runner JUnitCore FoobarTest JUnit version 4 8 2   Time  0 009     OK  1 test    One test passed

The simplest solution is to add  Test annotated method to class where initialisation exception is present   In our project we have main class with initial settings  I ve added  Test method and exception has disappeared

I faced the same with my parent test setUp class which has annotation  RunWith SpringRunner class  and was being extended by other testClasses  As there was not test in the setUpclass   and Junit was trying to find one due to annotation  RunWith SpringRunner class   it didn t find one and threw exception   No runnable methods exception in running JUnits  I made my parent class as abstract and it worked like a charm    I took help from here https   stackoverflow com a 10699141 8029525   Thanks for help  froh42

I had to change the import statement   import org junit jupiter api Test    to  import org junit Test

User · Answer

I had the same problem now with testing code  That was caused in spring boot because of the  RunWith annotation  I have used    RunWith SpringRunner class    With that annotation there is JUnit Vintage running which can t find any tests and gives you the error  I have removed that and only JUnit Jupiter is running and everything is fine

In my case I had wrong package imported   import org testng annotations Test    instead of  import org junit Test    Beware of your ide autocomplete

For me I added JUnit4 12 and Hamcrest1 3 on the classpath and changed import org testng annotations Test  or import org testng annotations    to import org junit Test   It finally works fine

In Eclipse  I had to use New  gt  Other  gt  JUnit  gt  Junit Test  A Java class created with the exact same text gave me the error  perhaps because it was using JUnit 3 x

If you re running test Suite via  RunWith Suite class   Suite SuiteClasses     check if all provided classes are really test classes       In my case one of the classes was an actual implementation  not a test class  Just a silly typo

User · Answer

if the class annotated with  RunWith SpringRunner class  But we class doesn t contain any test methods then we will face this issue  Solution  if we make to abstract we will not get this or if remove public then also we will not face this issue

User · Answer

I also faced this issue and failed to figure out the reason for the same for sometimes   Later i found that auto import issue using IDE  That is imports of the program   Basically i was using eclipse IDE  And I was importing a wrong class  org junit jupiter api Test  into the program instead of required class  org junit Test   Hence check your imports before running any programs

In my case  I was using the wrong Test import  The correct one was import org junit Test

I was able to fix by manually adding the junit jar to my project classpath  The easiest way I found to do this was by adding a  lib directory in the project root  Then i just put the junit jar inside  lib and junit tests starting working for me

This solution will apply to a very small percentage of people  typically people implementing their own JUnit test runners and using a separate ClassLoader    This can happen when you load a class from a different ClassLoader  then attempt to run that test from an instance of JUnitCore loaded from the system class loader  Example      Load class URLClassLoader cl   new URLClassLoader myTestUrls  null   Class lt   gt    testCls   cl loadClass  com gubby MyTest        Run test JUnitCore junit   new JUnitCore    junit run testCls      Throws java lang Exception  No runnable methods   Looking at the stack trace   java lang Exception  No runnable methods at org junit runners BlockJUnit4ClassRunner validateInstanceMethods BlockJUnit4ClassRunner java 169  at org junit runners BlockJUnit4ClassRunner collectInitializationErrors BlockJUnit4ClassRunner java 104  at org junit runners ParentRunner validate ParentRunner java 355  at org junit runners ParentRunner  lt init gt

junit runners model RunnerBuilder safeRunnerForClass RunnerBuilder java 59  at org junit internal requests ClassRequest getRunner ClassRequest java 26  at org junit runner JUnitCore run JUnitCore java 138    The problem actually occurs at BlockJUnit4ClassRunner 169  assuming JUnit 4 11    https   github com junit-team junit blob r4 11 src main java org junit runners BlockJUnit4ClassRunner java L95  Where it checks which methods are annotated with  Test   protected List lt FrameworkMethod gt  computeTestMethods         return getTestClass   getAnnotatedMethods Test class       In this case  Test class will have been loaded with the system ClassLoader  i e   the one that loaded JUnitCore   therefore technically none of your test methods will have been annotated with that annotation   Solution is to load JUnitCore in the same ClassLoader as the tests themselves     Edit  In answer to the question from user3486675  you need to create a ClassLoader that doesn t delegate to the system class loader  e g    private static final class IsolatedURLClassLoader extends URLClassLoader       private IsolatedURLClassLoader URL   urls               Prevent delegation to the system class loader          super urls  null             Pass this a set of URLs that includes everything you need  You can create this by filtering the system classpath  Note that you cannot simply delegate to the parent ClassLoader  because those classes would then get loaded by that rather than the ClassLoader of your test classes   Then you need to kick off the whole JUnit job from a class loaded by this ClassLoader  It gets messy here  Something like this utter filth below   public static final class ClassLoaderIsolatedTestRunner        public ClassLoaderIsolatedTestRunner                Disallow construction at all from wrong ClassLoader         ensureLoadedInIsolatedClassLoader this                 Do not rename      public void run invokedReflectively List lt String gt  testClasses  throws

new JUnitCore            ensureLoadedInIsolatedClassLoader junit           junit addListener               junit run classes              private static void ensureLoadedInIsolatedClassLoader Object o            String objectClassLoader   o getClass   getClassLoader   getClass   getName                NB  Can t do instanceof here because they are not instances of each other          if   objectClassLoader equals IsolatedURLClassLoader class getName                   throw new IllegalStateException String format                       Instance of  s not loaded by a IsolatedURLClassLoader  loaded by  s                        cls  objectClassLoader                        THEN  you need to invoke the runner via reflection   Class lt   gt  runnerClass

You will get this exception  if you use the JUnit 4 4 core runner to execute a class that has no   Test  method  Kindly consult the link for more info   courtesy vipin8169

You can also get this if you mix org junit and org junit jupiter annotations inadvertently
