NbModuleSuite not working on the Mac

[David Van Couvering-2]

I was very happy to find NbModuleSuite that lets me run tests for a module within the context of a NB runtime - in particular other modules I depend on and their layer files are loaded.

The problem: it's completely broken on the Mac.  NbModuleSuite throws an assertion failure because it can't find "lib/tools.jar" underneath the Java platform directory.  Apple's JDK doesn't have a 'lib' directory and it doesn't have a 'tools.jar'. 

Anybody know how to get around this?  Or am I SOL? 

Thanks,

David

Just file a bug and it should get fixed soon enough. No need to waste
time with the mailing list for something like this.
