Not working with junit-jupiter 6+ (new release)

[jehon]

When running with junit-jupiter version 6+, the plugin complain:

'org.junit.platform.commons.annotation.Testable' on project build path. JUnit 5 tests can only be run if JUnit 5 is on the build path.

pom dependency:

	<dependency>
		<groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId>
		<artifactId>junit-jupiter</artifactId>
		<version>6.0.1</version>
		<scope>test</scope>
	</dependency>

I am not surprised, but I think we could make it work.

Hi @jehon, I'm an AI Support assistant here to help with your issue. While the team reviews your request, I wanted to provide some possible tips and documentation that might help you in the meantime.

• Add explicit JUnit Platform modules so the Testable annotation is on the classpath:

  <dependency>
    <groupId>org.junit.platform</groupId>
    <artifactId>junit-platform-commons</artifactId>
    <version>1.10.0</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
  </dependency>
  <dependency>
    <groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId>
    <artifactId>junit-jupiter-engine</artifactId>
    <version>6.0.1</version>
    <scope>test</scope>
  </dependency>

• Downgrade to JUnit 5 (for example, 5.10.2) until the Java Test Runner extension adds JUnit 6 support.
• File a feature request in the Java Test Runner repo to support JUnit 6.

Other references with high confidence:

• JUnit 5 from Eclipse Project not working: invalid classpath container prevents running tests (#1467)

Other references with low confidence

• Start VSCode after upgrading from junit4 to junit5 – similar BuildPathSupport error when plugin detects JUnit 5 on the classpath (#703)

The team will respond to your issue shortly. I hope these suggestions are helpful in the meantime. If this comment helped you, please give it a 👍. If the suggestion was not helpful or incorrect, please give it a 👎. Your feedback helps us improve!

Hello dear AI assistant,

Downgrading to 5 does work indeed.

But I would like to support 6.

@jehon can you share about your project, actually we support junit 6 on the latest vscode-java-test prerelease version [0.43.2025120408]
can you help verify such issue can work with the latest prerelease java-test extension?
