Description ulfzibis 2008-08-15 11:51:55 UTC 
[ BUILD # : Beta ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.0_07 ]

junit-3.8.2.jar is located in \NetBeans 6.5 Beta\java2\modules\ext
junit-4.1.jar is located in \NetBeans 6.5 Beta\platform9\modules\ext\

IMHO this does not make much sense.

Regarding inconsistency to mobility paths also see: Issue 129611

BTW: changing this path caused a very difficult to find issue 142416
:-(
Comment 1 Lukas Hasik 2008-08-18 15:21:41 UTC 
is there a way how can NB change the "old" paths? A translation table? Or during the import of settings?
reassigning to simpletest authors
Comment 2 Jesse Glick 2008-08-18 23:13:00 UTC 
The cluster locations are intentional. JUnit 4.x (which includes JUnit 3.x classes) is used to run NB module unit tests,
so needs to be in the platform. The separate JUnit 3.x JAR is available for (non-module) user projects which elect to
use the older version of JUnit, so this is only bundled with the IDE's JUnit support module.
