Profiling JUnit tests in Eclipse

J

Jan

I have set up Eclipse and have sets of JUnit test cases which I run
directly in Eclipse to monitor results.

I have installed an Eclipse plugin which provides profiling (called
the Eclipse Profiler Plugin - ru.nlmk.eclipse.plugins.profiler
0.5.27).

I want to run my Junit tests within Eclipse and be able to profile
these at the same time but this is not working.

My JUnit test has a main() method, so I don`t understand why it can`t
profile it (I can profile a simple class with a main() method which is
not running JUnit test).

The error I get when I start the profiler with it pointing to the main
method of my testcase is:


There was 1 error:
1) testConvertLegacyData(TestCase1)
java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException:
java.lang.NullPointerException
at

Can anyone help me with why this is happening?
Thanks in advance for any help,

Jan
