22

23

24

25

28
+ symbol: class ExerciseClassName
29
+ location: class ExerciseClassNameTest
30
+ ```
31
+ This error occurs because the test refers to a class that hasn't been created yet (`ExerciseClassName`).
32
+ To resolve the error you need to add a file matching the class name in the error to the `src/main/java` directory.
33
+ For example, for the error above you would add a file called `ExerciseClassName.java`.
34
+
35
+ When you try to run the tests again you will get slightly different errors.
36
+ You might get an error similar to:
37
+ ```
38
+ constructor ExerciseClassName in class ExerciseClassName cannot be applied to given types;
39
+ ExerciseClassName exerciseClassName = new ExerciseClassName("some argument");
40
+ ^
41
+ required: no arguments
42
+ found: String
43
+ reason: actual and formal argument lists differ in length
44
+ ```
45
+ This error means that you need to add a [constructor](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/javaOO/constructors.html) to your new class.
46
+ If you don't add a constructor, Java will add a default one for you.
47
+ This default constructor takes no arguments.
48
+ So if the tests expect your class to have a constructor which takes arguments, then you need to create this constructor yourself.
49
+ In the example above you could add:
50
+ ```
51
+ ExerciseClassName(String input) {
52
+
53
+ }
54
+ ```
55
+ That should make the error go away, though you might need to add some more code to your constructor to make the test pass!
56
+
57
+ You might also get an error similar to:
58
+ ```
59
+ error: cannot find symbol
60
+ assertEquals(expectedOutput, exerciseClassName.someMethod());
61
+ ^
62
+ symbol: method someMethod()
63
+ location: variable exerciseClassName of type ExerciseClassName
64
+ ```
65
+ This error means that you need to add a method called `someMethod` to your new class.
66
+ In the example above you would add:
67
+ ```
68
+ String someMethod() {
69
+ return "";
70
+ }
71
+ ```
72
+ Make sure the return type matches what the test is expecting.
73
+ You can find out which return type it should have by looking at the type of object it's being compared to in the tests.
74
+ Or you could set your method to return some random type (e.g. `void`), and run the tests again.
75
+ The new error should tell you which type it's expecting.
76

77
+ After having resolved these errors you should be ready to start making the tests pass!
