Install New Software is the only correct way to install a plug-in.

Do not download the jar, instead enter the address of the update site https://www.evosuite.org/update/ in to the 'Work with' field on the Install New Software dialog (and press Enter). The dialog will then show you what can be installed from that location.

Note that Eclipse Luna is now 6 years and 12 releases old, the plug-in might require a newer release.

What the Install New Software dialog should show: Example install new software dialog

  • what is the eclipse version that you used as mentioned in the image – sreemanthula sravani Aug 20 '20 at 12:03
  • The current Eclipse 2020-06 release (dark theme on macOS other systems may look a bit different). I have not tested if the plug-in installs or works, only that it shows in the install dialog. – greg-449 Aug 20 '20 at 12:12
  • When I gave https://www.evosuite.org/update/ I am not getting the evosuite plugin in the drop down . may be due to version compatability. Can you please mention the eclipse,JRE and JDK versions that u used in your system. – sreemanthula sravani Aug 20 '20 at 13:11
  • You must press enter when you have typed `https://www.evosuite.org/update/` in to Work with field, you will always get something appearing in the 'Name' section even if it is just 'nothing found'. I have already told you I am using Eclipse 2020-06, the JRE/JDK is not relevant. – greg-449 Aug 20 '20 at 13:17
  • This is really helpful and I am able to install the plugin successfully. but i am not able to get generate tests with evosuite option on right click of a java file.after the plugin is installed successfuly. – sreemanthula sravani Aug 21 '20 at 09:39
