I try to use JUnit tests in a Java project in VS Code.

My setup

1) JDK 17

2) Via the Extension Pack for Java I have a its extensions installed including the following:

• Language Support for Java by Red Hat
• Debugger for Java
• Java Test Runner

3) I went to the Testing pane and downloaded (via the wizard) the testing JARs hamcrest-core-1.3.jar and junit-4.13.2.jar into the lib directory.

4) I made sure in Classpath Configuration the two JARs are listed under Referenced Libraries.

5) The project contains a main unqualified App.java with a main method and a qualified package like org.mydomain.calculations. The method(s) which I want to test are in the qualified package!

What I did then

In a class of the qualified package I right-click and choose from the context menu Source Actions..., then Generate Tests.... From the appearing project chooser I select the current project -- and then I get the error ballon "Cannot find a valid classpath entry to generate tests".

This confuses me, because I did add the JUnit JAR to the classpath.

What else can I do to make generating tests in the qualified package work?
