i am trying to create a unit test using SpringJUnit4ClassRunner but everytime i execute the test it says it cannot find SpringJUnit4ClassRunner using mvn install.
\src\test\java\com\jr\freedom\util\JsonParserUtilTest.java:11: cannot find symbol [ERROR] symbol: class SpringJUnit4ClassRunner [ERROR] -> [Help 1]
here is my code
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.class) public class JsonParserUtilTest { private String jsonUser = "{ \"username\":\"jono111\",\"emailAddress\":\"[email protected]\", \"password\":\"12345678\",\"firstName\":\"jono\", \"surname\":\"richy\", \"country\":\"united kingdom\",\"bio\":\"Bio stuff goes here about the user. where he comes from etc etc. all is well. lets go go go\" }"; @Test public void testToJsonObject() { User user = new User(); user.setBio("bio mate"); user.setCountry("uk"); user.setEmailAddress("[email protected]"); user.setFirstName("jono"); user.setPassword("passwordfdsadsa"); user.setUsername("crazy8"); JSONObject jsonUser = JsonPojo.toJsonObject(user); assertNotNull(jsonUser); assertNotNull(jsonUser.keys()); System.out.println(jsonUser); } @Test public void testToObject(){ JSONObject jsonUser = JSONObject.fromObject(jsonUser); }
Here is my POM file:

i am using springSource tool suit IDE to develop this spring mvc app and on the IDE it highlights SpringJUnit4ClassRunner as a error saying it cant be resolved despite me including all the necessary dependencies on my pom file.
Thanks
@RunWith(SpringJUnit4ClassRunner. class): Indicates that the class should use Spring's JUnit facilities.
There is no difference, from the javadoc: SpringRunner is an alias for the SpringJUnit4ClassRunner.
@RunWith(SpringRunner. class) tells JUnit to run using Spring's testing support. SpringRunner is the new name for SpringJUnit4ClassRunner , it's just a bit easier on the eye.
I downloaded your code and got it working locally, as long as I included the relevant import statements:
import org.springframework.test.context.junit4.SpringJUnit4ClassRunner; import org.junit.runner.RunWith; import org.junit.Test; ...
Perhaps you're missing an import somewhere.
