Mac OS command line TestNG - “Cannot find class in classpath” error

直接eclipse执行.xml文件可以正确执行

在mac下执行却总报错：

[TestNG] [Error]

Cannot find class in classpath

最后解决办法，classpath格式错误，正确执行的格式：

先cd 到工程目录，

java -cp "lib/testng-6.9.10.jar:bin:lib/:target/test-classes/"   -Djava.ext.dirs=lib  org.testng.TestNG testSuits/testSuitExample_android.xml

lib  bin  target都是工程下的文件夹，

其中.class文件在target/test-classes/下，lib下是一些引用的jar包，待执行的文件testSuitExample_android.xml在testSuits目录下

mac下用：分隔；windows下用；分隔

详细的如何下dos prompt下执行TestNG见下面链接：

You need to have the testng.jar under classpath.

try C:\projectfred> java -cp "path-tojar/testng.jar:path_to_yourtest_classes" org.testng.TestNG testng.xml

Update:

Under linux I ran this command and it would be some thing similar on Windows either

test/bin# java -cp ".:../lib/*" org.testng.TestNG testng.xml

Directory structure:

/bin - All my test packages are under bin including testng.xml
/src - All source files are under src
/lib - All libraries required for the execution of tests are under this.

Once I compile all sources they go under bin directory. So, in the classpath I need to specify contents of bin directory and all the libraries like testng.xml, loggers etc over here. Also copy testng.xml to bin folder if you dont want to specify the full path where the testng.xml is available.

 /bin
    -- testng.xml
    -- testclasses
    -- Properties files if any.
 /lib
    -- testng.jar
    -- log4j.jar

Update:

Go to the folder MyProject and type run the java command like the way shown below:-

java -cp ".: C:\Program Files\jbdevstudio4\studio\plugins\*" org.testng.TestNG testng.xml

I believe the testng.xml file is under C:\Users\me\workspace\MyProject if not please give the full path for testng.xml file
