java.lang.ClassNotFoundException：org.hamcrest.Matchers后添加依赖项pom.xml

Question

When I launch soap service application I get this error from my console

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.hamcrest.Matchers

After research, I have added these three dependencies to the pom.xml and still the error still exists on launching the application

<dependency>
          <groupId>junit</groupId>
          <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
          <version>4.12</version>
          <scope>test</scope>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
          <groupId>org.hamcrest</groupId>
          <artifactId>hamcrest-library</artifactId>
          <version>1.3</version>
          <scope>test</scope>
        </dependency>
         <dependency>
            <groupId>org.hamcrest</groupId>
            <artifactId>hamcrest-core</artifactId>
            <version>1.3</version>
            <scope>test</scope>
         </dependency>

Grateful for any assistance received.

Answer 1

Can you try with below:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hamcrest</groupId>
    <artifactId>hamcrest-all</artifactId>
    <version>1.3</version>        
</dependency>

Answer 2

This error indicate the lib of hamcrest aren't present at classpath of your app.

If you are using the org.hamcrest.Matchers class at Runtime, is necessary to change your scope to compile or provided if your midleware provided the hamcrest lib.

The test scope use the lib only in the test lifecycle.
