声纳上的java.lang.ClassCastException

Question

Recently I've been assigned to examine Java code coverage using Sonar with Maven. I run mvn sonar:sonar and the build comes out just fine, plus I can see the result from the dashboard.

However, the test cases come out as errors, which does not happen at all if I run it normally. Here is the error stack trace:

$Proxy11 cannot be cast to com.epsilon.agility.message.dao.MessageDAO
java.lang.ClassCastException: $Proxy11 cannot be cast to                    com.epsilon.agility.message.dao.MessageDAO

Here is the method involved in the error:

@BeforeClass
@Transactional(propagation = Propagation.REQUIRED, timeout = 10)
public static void setUp() throws IOException {
    conn = TestDBUtils.getDBConnection();

    MessageDBAdaptorService.init(conn);

    msgclassificationFacade = new MessageClassificationFacadeImpl(conn);

    messageDAO = MessageDBAdaptorService.getMessageDAO();
    messageAssetDAO = MessageDBAdaptorService.getMessageAssetDAO();
    channelDAO = MessageDBAdaptorService.getChannelDAO();
    folderItemDAO = MessageDBAdaptorService.getFolderItemDAO();
    folderDAO = MessageDBAdaptorService.getFolderDAO();


    Assert.assertNotNull(messageDAO);
    Assert.assertNotNull(messageAssetDAO);
    Assert.assertNotNull(channelDAO);
    Assert.assertNotNull(folderItemDAO);
    Assert.assertNotNull(folderDAO);

}

I've searched the solutions online but it seems that there is no similar solution for Sonar. I suspect that the problem might come from Sonar's different approach for test cases since the test cases run fine on normal basis.

I will post more code and information if the above are not enough. Thanks for any help.

It doesn't seem to be a Sonar problem. From the stack trace I assume that maven surefire plugin can't execute a particular test. If I were you I'd the following. - Verify that you custom build and Sonar are using the same maven surefire plugin version and have the same configuration.
