Unable To Open The Tool After Introducing Your Custom Method

This happens when the cognizant-intelligent-test-scripter-engine-.jar found in Cognizant Intelligent Test Scripter installation_location/lib, gets corrupted while exporting the cognizant-intelligenttest-scripter-engine-.jar back from Engine or while inject script is performed. You might get an exception stating that main class not found.

To overcome this issue, always take a backup of the cognizant-intelligent-testscripter-engine-.jar before you export the jar from Engine. So even when the jar is corrupt you can still replace the existing jar by the new one. Also do not change the name of the cognizant-intelligent-test-scripter-engine-.jar available inside the lib folder.

Another alternative is to delete the recent items file present in the installation location when Cognizant Intelligent Test Scripter is closed and open again.

Note: Please do not take the back up in the same location or inside the lib folder. Place it in a different location.

If you face this issue after performing inject script then delete the .class file of your custom method found in the userdefined folder of installation location and close and reopen.

Note: This could also be because the .jar files present in the location\lib\commands might have got corrupted. So you can simply remove those files to open Cognizant Intelligent Test Scripter.
