Test runs on command line, fails in Scala-IDE

Question

When right-click running a test class, Eclipse failed with

Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: scala/Product$class

Yet it ran in the command line with sbt test. The libraries have been updated as described in java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: scala/Product$class.

This happened with the latest Scala IDE (4.7.0-vfinal-2017-09-29T14:34:02Z-Typesafe) with the patmat project from Coursera's scala course.

What is the cause and how can it be fixed?

Looks like an eclipse project configuration issue, I am not much familiar with eclipse. Let me know if you still getting errors with this project using IntelliJ IDEA. — lprakashv, Feb 05 '19 at 08:56
@LalitPrakash: works like a charm in IntelliJ IDEA. Any clue how to fix in Eclipse? — serv-inc, Feb 06 '19 at 08:02

Please use the Scala library version 2.11 as the other Scala based dependencies like scala-xml and scalatest are based on Scala library version 2.11

You have a combination of _2.11 libraries and 2.12.3 Scala library, this won't work. It looks like the _2.11 dependendencies come from SBT (judging from the paths).

You need to either change Scala IDE's Scala version (setting correct scala version on scala ide explains how) or set scalaVersion := "2.12.3" in the SBT project and rerun sbt eclipse.
