Unable to create test classes using evosuite

[RSoodAMAT]

Context

I have a gradle project . I build the project and my classes got generated under build/classes/java/main/com/poc/utility/MathsUtil.class

I tried running the command line command to generate test case : $EVOSUITE -class com.poc.utility.MathsUtil -projectCP build/classes

I am using evosuite-1.1.0.jar for EVOSUITE Java Version 14 Spring Boot version : 2.5.1

Getting below exception :

EvoSuite 1.1.0

• Going to generate test cases for class: com.poc.utility.MathsUtil
• Unknown class: com.poc.utility.MathsUtil. Be sure its full qualifying name is correct and the classpath is properly set with '-projectCP'

Steps to Reproduce

Please break down here below all the needed steps to reproduce the issue. [If possible, please upload an example of the project you are generating tests for.]

1. Create a gradle spring boot java project using jdk 8 and above
2. Try to create test cases for any one of the class in the package using the EVOSuite command

EvoSuite Arguments

Did you already try $EVOSUITE -class com.poc.utility.MathsUtil -projectCP build/classes/java/main? Gradle seems to put the compiled classes into different places than Maven.

Thanks @rkraneis -- indeed the correct classpath must be build/classes/java/main according to the first statement in the bug report, not build/classes, so the correct usage would be $EVOSUITE -class com.poc.utility.MathsUtil -projectCP build/classes/java/main
