java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/lang3/Validate

The following exception occurs when I tried running my first test using RestAssured version 3.0.2:

I think there's something wrong with your classpath. You most likely haven't imported all REST Assured dependencies. See getting started guide.

[johno1985]

I have followed all instructions. There is no mention of explicitly importing any other dependencies

What do you mean by importing? There are indeed instructions that you should download all dependencies and put them in your classpath.

[johno1985]

I have done that, see the pin snippet above

Then there's something wrong with your maven configuration. You might be excluding commons-lang3 or it's overridden by some other transitive dependency. You could try to move rest-assured to the top of your libraries.

[johno1985]

I don't believe that is the case, this is the output of my dependency graph: io.rest-assured:rest-assured:jar:3.0.2:test [INFO] | +- org.codehaus.groovy:groovy:jar:2.4.6:test [INFO] | +- org.codehaus.groovy:groovy-xml:jar:2.4.6:test [INFO] | +- org.apache.httpcomponents:httpmime:jar:4.5.1:test [INFO] | +- org.hamcrest:hamcrest-core:jar:1.3:test [INFO] | +- org.hamcrest:hamcrest-library:jar:1.3:test [INFO] | +- org.ccil.cowan.tagsoup:tagsoup:jar:1.2.1:test [INFO] | +- io.rest-assured:json-path:jar:3.0.2:test [INFO] | | +- org.codehaus.groovy:groovy-json:jar:2.4.6:test [INFO] | | \- io.rest-assured:rest-assured-common:jar:3.0.2:test [INFO] | \- io.rest-assured:xml-path:jar:3.0.2:test [INFO] | \- org.apache.commons:commons-lang3:jar:3.4:test [INFO] \- junit:junit:jar:4.12:test

That's very weird since the class you're referring to is available in org.apache.commons:commons-lang3:jar:3.4

[kobbikobb]

I tried exactly the code above and it worked.
This is very old and seems to be relevant to the setup of the machine.

Can we close this, can´t reproduce?

As indicated on https://github.com/rest-assured/rest-assured/wiki/GettingStarted#java-9 you may add a dependency rest-assured-all.

<dependency>
   <groupId>io.rest-assured</groupId>
   <artifactId>rest-assured-all</artifactId>
   <version>4.0.0</version>
</dependency>

Add it SOLVED my problem.
