Bryan Pendleton commented on DERBY-6164:
----------------------------------------
Another thing you can try is to download the 3.8.2 version of junit.jar
manually from the junit web site and put it into the tools/java folder of
your source tree by hand, then see if that enables you to run the junit tests.
You can find more links to that process here:

> Improve Derby's Code Coverage - GSoC 2013 Project
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DERBY-6164
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6164
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Test
> Reporter: Bryan Pendleton
> Assignee: Bryan Pendleton
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: gsoc2013
>
> This year's edition of Google Summer of Code includes, once again, the Apache
> Software Foundation.
> For the Derby project, I'm offering to mentor a student on the tasks
> described here.
> For this project, you are required to have some basic knowledge of JUnit and
> of how code coverage works.
> Currently some packages of Derby have poor code coverage. Emma defines the
> minimum acceptable code coverage as 70% and some engineers suggest a minimum
> of 80% is desired.
> Students are invited to look at [1] to get familiar with Emma's code coverage
> reports on Derby.
> The Derby project conducted this effort last year, and substantial
> improvements were made.
> We are looking to continue this process this year, as there are still areas
> of the Derby code base where code coverage could be substantially improved.
> The candidate students are also expected to come up with their own schedule
> for the tests they plan on creating and to discuss this schedule publicly on
> the mailing list.
> After a student applies, a small interview will be conducted via email as
> part of the ASF's evaluation process.
