Description Jesse Glick 2008-09-30 16:00:46 UTC 
If an Eclipse project has both regular sources and unit tests in the same root, we cannot import it well:

1. Importing as a regular source root means tests will be uncompilable unless junit.jar is added to CP, cannot be run as
tests in any case, and may be incorrectly packaged into the final app.

2. Importing as a test root means you cannot run any main classes, make a normal JAR, etc.

If the project is detected as containing unit tests in all source roots, we should perhaps abort the import with a
message asking the user to refactor the project in Eclipse to use separate source roots.
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2009-06-09 20:42:50 UTC 
You can now run main classes from a test root. You would still not be able to make a JAR from it though.
Comment 2 Martin Balin 2016-07-07 08:38:03 UTC 
This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
