Eclipse No tests found using JUnit 5 caused by NoClassDefFoundError for LauncherFactory

Question

The problem

Whenever I run my projects JUnit test (using JUnit 5 with Java 9 and Eclipse Oxygen 1.a) I encounter the problem that eclipse can\'t find any tests.

Answer 1

I am using eclipse 2019-09.

I had to update the junit-bom version to at least 5.4.0. I previously had 5.3.1 and that caused the same symptoms of the OP.

My config is now:

    
        
            
                org.junit
                junit-bom
                5.5.2
                pom
                import
