Java – there is no such method. There is an error when creating JUnit test

I have tried to find out this problem in the past two days, and I have no luck I'm just trying to create an annotation - based JUnit test using spring framework and hibernate

My IDE is NetBeans 6.5. I use hibernate 3 and spring 2.5 5 and JUnit 4.4

This is my mistake:

Testcase: testFindContacts(com.mycontacts.data.dao.MyContactHibernateDaoTransactionTest):        Caused an ERROR

Solution

java. Lang.nosuchmethoderror always indicates that the version of the class on the compiler's classpath is different from that on the runtime classpath (the method is missing during compilation, and compilation fails)

In this case, you are at compile time on the classpath of org objectweb. asm. The classwriter version is different from the version on the runtime classpath
