Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/mockito/Mockito

I'm newbie with Mockito and trying to lean from Here,
All configuration I have done (Using Win-10) which mentioned in the tutorial.
Setting in Environment variable :
Mockito version :
<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.mockito/mockito-all -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.mockito</groupId>
<artifactId>mockito-all</artifactId>
<version>2.0.2-beta</version>
<scope>test</scope>
</dependency>
I've started with the example mentioned in the same. but while I do run the test my class it shows below exception :
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/mockito/Mockito

I don't know what went wrong here. Can someone help me ?

The scope test indicates that the dependencies (binary files) are only used using maven's test phase. They are not delivered with the final target jar though. So if you run tests yourself (rather than letting maven do it), you'd better leave the default runtime scope, as follows:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.mockito</groupId>
<artifactId>mockito-all</artifactId>
<version>2.0.2-beta</version>
</dependency>

As a note I got this in the following situation.
A depends on B. B has a "compile" dependency on Mockito, and uses Mockito in its "normal source code".
A has a dependency on B, and on Mockito.
And then that same message "NoClassDefFound org.mockito.Mockito".
Turns on B's pom's "dependency on Mockito" was inheriting "test" from a parent. Apparently this "more local dependency" overrides the other one.
Making it problematic to share Mockito as a non-test dependency. Unless it's always and only used for unit tests, then it'll be available.

com.amazonaws.transform.JsonErrorUnmarshaller: method <init>(Ljava/lang/Class;)V not found

We are using a library called logback-ext-cloudwatch-appender to send our logback-based logs to AWS Cloudwatch. This is what the dependency looks like in our pom.xml file.
<dependency>
<groupId>org.eluder.logback</groupId>
<artifactId>logback-ext-cloudwatch-appender</artifactId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
A few days ago these errors started appearing in our logs.

I found out that we had upgraded to AWS 1.11.5, but I couldn't find any evidence of such a bug in that release.

It turns out that the current version of logback-ext-cloudwatch-appender has a transitive dependency on a specific version of aws-java-sdk-logs 1.10.2, which is not compatible with other aws-java-sdk libraries 1.11.0 and above. We do use a number of other aws-java-sdk libraries. We excluded the dependency like this.
<dependency>

At that point we started getting another error.

Merely excluding the dependencies did not work. I had to fork and rebuild the logback-ext-cloudwatch-appender jar with a dependency on the current 1.11.5 aws-java-sdk libraries. Trying to use the new AWS dependencies with the logback-ext-cloudwatch-appender jar which had been built against the old libraries caused a mismatch in the method signature (return type) of createLogGroup which caused a runtime error. To get this to run, I only had to change the pom.xml files, not the source code, in my forked version.

Getting NoClassDefFoundError by using Ghost4j

this is my first Questing here and i didn't found any solutions to my Problem.
Please don't take it amiss, if my text is broken English.
For my program I want to resize images inside an existing PDF-Document. This should happens automatically within a Java program.
During my search, I found the Ghost4j Library in the web, which can solve my problem - maybe!
As a first test with Ghost4j to tryout if it works, I want to load my PDF Document out of the MySQL Database and check out the pageCount.
Here ist my short code:
...
for (File file : convertableFiles) {
InputStream inputStream = new ByteArrayInputStream(file.getFile());
PDFDocument doc = new PDFDocument();
doc.load(inputStream);
System.out.println(doc.getPageCount());
}
...
The error comes at line 45 = doc.load(inputStream)
(Note: if I use new File(Path) for doc.load and set a pdfSample Document. It works. But not with inputStream)
When I execute my programm i'll get everytime this Excption:

I understand that iText 2.1.7 isn't supported anymore and i should use Version 5.x.x, but it doesn't work here to download the newest iText Lib, when in the Ghost4j Jar apparently the Lib 2.1.7 are used.
Otherwise, maybe its my fault and I didn't understand at this moment how to implements correctly the newest Version.
PS:
I'am using Java 1.7, Eclipse Kepler, Windows 8.1
I'll be glad, someone is knowing any solutions or can help me a little bit.

You are missing the Bouncycastle dependency.
I don't think a PDF library would depends on that, except if there is a need to protect the PDF, but you'll find Bouncycastle here: http://bouncycastle.org/latest_releases.html
Try with bcprov-jdk14-147.jar and/or bcprov-ext-jdk14-147.jar downloadable from Maven Central repository:
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/bouncycastle/bcprov-jdk14/1.47/
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/bouncycastle/bcprov-ext-jdk14/1.47/
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/bouncycastle/bcmail-jdk14/1.47/
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/bouncycastle/bctsp-jdk14/1.47/
If that still don't work, try with the other excluded dependencies listed here:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.lowagie</groupId>
<artifactId>itext</artifactId>
<version>2.1.7</version>

Should set the classpath manually for slf4j jar file??

Maven picks up the dependencies you defined in the pom.xml from your local repository so everything compiles fine. However when you launch the application from a script or commandline you need to specify where the necessary classes are found, through the classpath.
For eclipse, there's the m2e & m2e-wtp plugins which integrate maven with your IDE so you don't need to add the jars manually one by one. Instead you'll have a sort of "virtual maven library" which contains references to all your dependencies, like in the image below:

exception: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter.setRgbTransparencyBlending(Z)V

guys! For long time I can't fix the exception: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfWriter.setRgbTransparencyBlending(Z)V
I've add all need jars into classpath:
commons-beanutils-1.8.0
commons-collections-2.1.1
commons-digester-2.1.0
commons-javaflow-20060411
commons-logging-1.1.1
itext - 2.1.5
jasperreports - 5.1.0
I saw requirements for JasperReports here, so I've all need libraries, but, anyway, I can't fix the bug
My code:
class ForIReport {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// def conn = Sql.newInstance(
// "jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;databaseName=twitter",
// 'sa',
// 'sunrise123',
// 'com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver')
// Class.forName("com.microsoft.jdbc.SQLServerDriver").newInstance();
// Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://localhost:1433", 'sa', 'sunrise123');

I can create the instance of PdfWriter class (for check myself)
Thank you for your help

jasperreports-5.1.0 needs itext-2.1.7.
You can see it in the pom of the jasperreports-5.1.0 project:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.lowagie</groupId>
<artifactId>itext</artifactId>
<version>2.1.7.js2</version>
<scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>
You need to upgrade the version of itext to version 2.1.7 minimum.

I had the same [runtime] error. What I realized was, I had the wrong jars for the "batik" library. I got all version 1.7 jars from the org.apache.xmlgraphics. I'm using jasper in this way:
<dependency>
<groupId>net.sf.jasperreports</groupId>
<artifactId>jasperreports</artifactId>
<version>4.0.0</version>
</dependency>
The batik, for example:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.xmlgraphics</groupId>
<artifactId>batik-anim</artifactId>
<version>1.7</version>
</dependency>
Also, I made sure I only had one instance of iText in the pom:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.lowagie</groupId>
<artifactId>iText</artifactId>
<version>2.1.7</version>
</dependency>
Hope that helps.

I had the same issue, when retrieving data from grid and writing to a PDF using
flying-saucer-pdf
The isuue was com.lowagie (itext) and org.xhtmlrenderer (flying-saucer-pdf) versions incompatible,
use following,
<dependency>
<groupId>com.lowagie</groupId>
<artifactId>itext</artifactId>
<version>2.1.7</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.xhtmlrenderer</groupId>
<artifactId>flying-saucer-pdf</artifactId>
<version>9.0.7</version>
</dependency>

I have also came across same situation but finally succeeded to resolve it.
If you are using maven then add below dependency
<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.birt.runtime.3_7_1</groupId>
<artifactId>com.lowagie.text</artifactId>
<version>2.1.7</version>
</dependency>
or download jar from below link and add to your buildpath
com.lowagie.text_2.1.7
It will be of no use to add itext-2.1.7.jar , Also the latest version of that is itextpdf-5.5.9.jar

If M. Abbas answer does not work then please use this dependency:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.lowagie</groupId>
<artifactId>itext</artifactId>
<version>2.1.7</version>
</dependency>
It works for me.
