Duplicate package name in different project causes InvalidAccessException when run as plugin test
java,eclipse,junit,eclipse-plugin
The most common way around this is to make your test bundle a Fragment rather than a Plugin and set its host plugin as the one containing the classes you are testing. This will mean the fragment uses the host plugin's ClassLoader and so should have access to those classes....
