    <h2>Issue</h2> <p>Working with TestNG on a maven managed project, i can't seem to run tests via the TestNG eclipse plugin. When trying to run tests, the following error message pops up (inside a dialog window):</p> <blockquote> <p>Couldn't contact the RemoteTestNG client. Make sure you don't have an older version of testng.jar on your class path.</p> <p>Reason:<br> Timeout while trying to contact RemoteTestNG.</p> </blockquote> <p>How to resolve this?</p> <h2>Things I have tried</h2> <p>(After asking <strong>all</strong> my peers at the office QA department on this, and looking up information via the common search engines and on TestNG forums)</p> <ul> <li>Making sure I don't have an older version on my class path (naturally).</li> <li>Eliminating possible collisions between maven imported jars and jars used by the TestNG eclipse plugin (both are of version 6.7, and the project's <code>pom.xml</code> confirmed to use only its own dependent jar).</li> <li>Performing maven update and build after said changes.</li> <li>Running on a different JRE (specifically 1.7.0).</li> </ul> <h2>Relevant information</h2> <h3>Environment:</h3> <ul> <li><strong>OS:</strong> Win XP pro SP3</li> <li><strong>JRE:</strong> 1.6.0 update 31</li> <li><strong>TestNG:</strong> 6.7</li> <li><strong>Maven:</strong> 3.0.3</li> <li><strong>IDE:</strong> Eclipse Juno Java EE SR1</li> </ul> <h3><code>pom.xml</code> content:</h3> <pre class="lang-xml prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?&gt;

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
