Working on a legacy java program using NetBeans, I am unable to import the junit.framework.TestCase the original author used in Test.java files

To start things off, I am entirely new to Java. I'm a C#/Powershell guy. A client at my IT Firm had an issue with a java program that they were executing on a daily basis that was having issues. According to Windows, the original program was written in April of 2011. I was able to unzip the file and pulled out all of the java files. I then rebuilt the program's structure in NetBeans and am getting ready to start editing. However, each *Test.java file is unable to import junit.framework.TestCase. In the original program file, each of these files were in the same folders as their associated files. From what I can tell, that is not best practices but it was the folder structure I found in the *.jar file I pulled them from. i.e.:
+ Source Packages
|
+--+ Folder
|
+--Example.java
|
+--ExampleTest.java
This leads me to 2 potential issues:
Reading similar threads regarding junit.framework "does not exist", there is mention of adding the junit.jar to the POM or adding the dependency to maven. For NetBeans, how do I do this? Using the "Add Dependency" menu, I am unable to find a "junit.framework" and there is 125,000 results for junit that I am unsure which one I need. Any insights? At the time of the original program's writing, v3 and v4 were both released, although v3.8.1 remained in use for some time beyond the adoption of v4.
For its use-case, see below. I assume all the errors are related to the junit import, so I included them as comments.
package com.example.program;
import java.util.Properties;
import junit.framework.TestCase;
/* Import files specific to program */
public class ExampleTest extends TestCase { //Cannot find symbol (class) "TestCase"
private Properties config = null;
#Override //Error: method does not override or implement a method from a supertype
/* SetUp function/method w/out any issues, creates config Properties object */
public void testExample(){
String line = "*"; // some csv line being parsed
CSVLine csvLine = new CSVLine(line, config);
assertEquals(/* does stuff */); // Error: cannot find "symbol" (method) "assertEquals"
assertTrue(/* does stuff */); // Error: cannot find "symbol" (method) "assertTrue"
assertTrue(/* does stuff*/); // Error: cannot find "symbol" (method) "assertTrue"
}
}
Do I need to move these Test.java files into a folder under the Test Packages section of the POM? Why would the original program have them in the same directory as their counterparts? Does some aspect of compiling/building move them to the same location?

Selenium4: "The method newWindow(WindowType) is undefined for the Type WebDriver.TargetLocator"

I'm trying to play with the Selenium 4 features in eclipse with java but can't seem to get them to work, which i'm assuming must be my mistake in configuration, so I'd appreciate if anyone can explain where i'm going wrong and how I can correct it?
Code below: I get an error warning on the last line (containing the newWindow() method) and the error message is as per the Title of this post.
I've downloaded the selenium-java-4.0.0-alpha-4 from here https://selenium-release.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=4.0-alpha4/
i've created a new eclipse java project, and unzipped and included all of the jar files in my java build path, but it doesn't seem to recognise / or be able to find the newWindow() method
package practice;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.WindowType;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
import static org.openqa.selenium.support.locators.RelativeLocator.withTagName;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
public class Sel4alpha4 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\Users\\me\\Downloads\\chromedriver_win32\\chromedriver.exe");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("http://www.google.com");
driver.switchTo().newWindow(WindowType.TAB); // this line has the error
}
}

There might be two problems:
1) Incorrect Import- You should import the following:
org.openqa.selenium.WindowType;
2) Issue with the version you are using. Try to upgrade the selenium version.
Version:
selenium 4.0.0-beta-4
Please try to download the updated jar from the below link:
https://www.selenium.dev/downloads/
or
https://selenium-release.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=4.0-beta-4/

"WebDriver cannot be resolved to a type" error in Android WebDriver java code

I have prepared the environment for test automation of Android Application using eclipse. I have followed the instruction from the below site:
https://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/AndroidDriver#Setup_the_Environment
I have copied the following code from the above website as below:
import junit.framework.TestCase;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.android.AndroidDriver;
public class OneTest extends TestCase {
public void testGoogle() throws Exception {
WebDriver driver = new AndroidDriver();
// And now use this to visit Google
driver.get("http://www.google.com");
// Find the text input element by its name
WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.name("q"));
// Enter something to search for
element.sendKeys("Cheese!");
// Now submit the form. WebDriver will find the form for us from the element
element.submit();
// Check the title of the page
System.out.println("Page title is: " + driver.getTitle());
driver.quit();
}
}
But error as "WebDriver cannot be resolved to a type" was found at the following line:
WebDriver driver = new AndroidDriver();
Note: I have added "selenium-server-standalone-2.33.0.jar" to Java Build Path

Only one import statement is needed to fix the error. import the following and that's it:
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

You need to properly install the android server available here http://code.google.com/p/selenium/downloads/list .
Follow this tutorial http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/AndroidDriver#Install_the_Android_SDK
regarding how to install the android web driver.

Add - import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;

using selenium in a web service throws java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError exception

I tried to implemented a web service from a dynamic web project. I added the selenium-server-standalone-2.32.0.jar file to the buildpath, then I also added it to the WEB-INF/lib folder. Then I used the web service wizard to generate the web service from the project. At the start of the wizard it displayed a pop-up warning that read:
The service class "test.eko3.TestEko3" does not comply to one or more requirements of the JAX-RPC 1.1 specification, and may not deploy or function correctly.
The value type "org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver" used via the service class "test.eko3.TestEko3" does not have a public default constructor. Chapter 5.4 of the JAX-RPC 1.1 specification requires a value type to have a public default constructor, otherwise a JAX-RPC 1.1 compliant Web service engine may be unable to construct an instance of the value type during deserialization.
The field or property "windowHandles" on the value type "org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver" used via the service class "test.eko3.TestEko3" has a data type, "java.util.Set", that is not supported by the JAX-RPC 1.1 specification. Instances of the type may not serialize or deserialize correctly. Loss of data or complete failure of the Web service may result.
I clicked ok and it generated the web server and the client and displayed the client in the eclipse's browser. But when I entered the parameters and clicked invoke it displayed this exception in the result section:
Exception: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/openqa/selenium/WebDriver; nested exception is: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/openqa/selenium/WebDriver Message: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/openqa/selenium/WebDriver; nested exception is: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/openqa/selenium/WebDriver
Since I added the selenium jar into both the buildpath and the WEB-INF/lib folder I'm not sure why it can't find the class. The code for the server is below:
package test.eko3;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.JavascriptExecutor;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebElement;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.ExpectedCondition;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.Wait;
import org.openqa.selenium.support.ui.WebDriverWait;
public class TestEko3 {
public String Ekobilet(String from, String to, String date) {
//Firefox browser instantiation
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
//Loading the URL
driver.get("http://www.amadeusepower.com/trek/portals/trek/default.aspx?Culture=en-US");
WebElement radioOneway = driver.findElement(By.id("ctl00_ctl00_ctl00_cph1_cph1_QuickSearchAll1_QuickFlightSearchControl1_rbFlightType_1"));
radioOneway.click();
waitForPageLoaded(driver);
WebElement fromText = driver.findElement(By.id("ctl00_ctl00_ctl00_cph1_cph1_QuickSearchAll1_QuickFlightSearchControl1_txtSearch_txtFrom"));
fromText.clear();
fromText.sendKeys(from);
WebElement toText = driver.findElement(By.id("ctl00_ctl00_ctl00_cph1_cph1_QuickSearchAll1_QuickFlightSearchControl1_txtSearch_txtTo"));
toText.sendKeys(to);
WebElement dateText = driver.findElement(By.id("ctl00_ctl00_ctl00_cph1_cph1_QuickSearchAll1_QuickFlightSearchControl1_txtDepartureDate_txtDate"));
dateText.sendKeys(date);
//Sign in button identification and click it
WebElement searchbutton = driver.findElement(By.id("ctl00_ctl00_ctl00_cph1_cph1_QuickSearchAll1_QuickFlightSearchControl1_btnSearch"));
searchbutton.click();
String page = driver.getPageSource();
// Writer out = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(
// new FileOutputStream("ekobiletselenium.html"), "UTF-8"));
// try {
// out.write(page);
// } finally {
// out.close();
// }
//Closing the browser
driver.close();
return page;
}
public static void waitForPageLoaded(WebDriver driver) {
ExpectedCondition<Boolean> expectation = new
ExpectedCondition<Boolean>() {
public Boolean apply(WebDriver driver) {
return ((JavascriptExecutor)driver).executeScript("return document.readyState").equals("complete");
}
};
Wait<WebDriver> wait = new WebDriverWait(driver,30);
try {
wait.until(expectation);
} catch(Throwable error) {
System.out.println("exception yavrum");
}
}
}
Can someone please tell me the cause of this? Am I missing a jar file that selenium depends on? Any help would be appreciated.

Maybe you are using the standalone jar which is not good for web projects.
See http://me-ol-blog.blogspot.co.il/2013/07/using-selenium-in-java-dynamic-web.html

This exception appears when selenium is not fully referenced in the project.
Here are the steps you can take to resolve the issue:
Download the Selenium Client & WebDriver Java Bindings here.
Unzip the downloaded file.
Copy the main selenium '.jar' (example: selenium-java-2.42.2.jar) to the web project's WebContent/WEB-INF/lib dir.
Also copy All the .jar files the Unzipped selenium libs dir to the web project's WebContent/WEB-INF/lib dir.
You should now be able to run the code without getting the java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/openqa/selenium/WebDriver exception.

Weird error with Locale.getISOCountries()

I'm using this code:
for (final String code : Locale.getISOCountries())
{
//stuff here
}
But on compile I get this error:
[ERROR] Line 21: No source code is available for type java.util.Locale; did you forget to inherit a required module?
And then a stack trace of compiler errors.
I'm doing both of these imports at the beginning of the class:
package com.me.example;
import java.util.Locale;
import java.util.*;
What can be wrong?
In Netbeans i see the autocomplete options and no syntax error for the Locale object...

Something screwy with your setup, the folllowing program works fine for me.
import java.util.*;
import java.util.Locale;
public class Donors {
public static void main (String [] args) {
for (final String code : Locale.getISOCountries()) {
System.out.println (code);
}
}
}
The fact that it's asking for source code leads me to believe that it's trying to compile or run it in some sort of debugging mode. You shouldn't need the source code for java.util.* to compile, that's just bizarre.
See if my simple test program works in your environment, then try looking for something along those lines (debugging options). Final step: compile your code with the baseline javac (not NetBeans).
UPDATE:
Actually, I have found something. If you are creating GWT applications, I don't think java.util.Locale is available on the client side (only the server side). All of the references on the web to this error message point to GWT and its limitations on the client side which are, after all, converted to Javascript goodies, so cannot be expected to support the entire set of Java libraries.
This page here shows how to do i18n on GWT apps and there's no mention of java.util.Locale except on the server side.

Looks like there might be something fishy in your build environment, as Locale.getISOCountries() should work just fine. Try compiling a small test program manually and see if you get the same error.

Definitely try to boil this down to a minimum, three-line program (or so), compile from the command-line, then put that class into your IDE and see if you still get the error, and if not, then change/add one line at a time until you have the original failing program, looking for what causes the problem. I'm thinking maybe some other import in your code is importing a Locale class? Why in the world would it be looking for source code?
See what happens when you compile this from the command-line:
import java.util.*;
public class LocaleTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Locale.getISOCountries();
}
}
