hibernate-osgi Test Debugging

Here's a quick tip for debugging hibernate-osgi test failures. Sometimes, a dependency or code change will result in an error that looks like the following:

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: *** Class 'org.hibernate.osgi.test.OsgiTestCase' was not found, but
this is likely normal since package 'org.hibernate.osgi.test' is dynamically imported by bundle
arquillian-osgi-bundle [5]. However, bundle hibernate-osgi-test [20] does export this package with attributes that
do not match. ***

That error is extremely misleading and is not the actual problem. To get to the root issue, open this file:

hibernate-osgi/target/test-results/TEST-org.hibernate.osgi.test.OsgiTestCase.xml

The root issue will usually be embedded half-way through. More often than not, searching for org.osgi.framework.BundleException will find it.
