The XML formatter needs the DOM classes to work. If you - are using JDK 1.4 or later they are included with your Java - Runtime and this problem won't occur. If you are running JDK - 1.3 or earlier, the DOM classes have to be on your - <junit> task's <classpath>.

- -

Prior to Ant 1.6.0 Ant would include the DOM classes from - the XML parser that is used by Ant itself if you set the - includeAntRuntime attribute to true (the default). With Ant - 1.6.0 this has been changed as this behavior made it - impossible to use a different XML parser in your tests.

- -

This means that you have to take care of the DOM classes - explicitly starting with Ant 1.6.0. If you don't need to set - up a different XML parser for your tests, the easiest solution - is to add

While JDK 1.4.x contains a version of Xalan-J 2, JDK 1.5 - (and later?) have moved - to XSLTC. Since this task uses Xalan's redirect - extensions for its internal stylesheet, Ant prior to 1.6.2 didn't support - XSLTC. This means that you have to install Xalan-J 2 in order - to use this task with JDK 1.5 in older versions of Ant.

Starting with Ant 1.6.2 <junitreport> - supports JDK 1.5.
