failed sessionFactory creation for JUnit Test

[linuxguru80]

I'm trying to create a basic Unit test (JUnit) for my DAO which uses hibernate. All this is configured mostly using annotations. My IDE is NetBeans.

I've been banging my head on this problem for the last couple days so any assistance would be great!
Thanks

Here the error trace:

I already did that. It's really of no use in solving this problem.

Maybe you have to add the @ContextConfiguration annotation in your DAO test class. Check the HIbernate Test class of Petclinic..

The problem seems to be with netbeans and how it sets up the class path during compile time & runtime. After spending hours trying to track down the problem in netbeans, I moved the project over to eclipse and everything worked properly.

I'm using NetBeans 6.5 and it works perfectly...
