ClassNotFoundException : AutoDiscoveryMethodFactory in SOAPUI 5.4

[swanandesh]

I'm using soap ui 5.4 and trying to export the swagger documentation using it. I could see com.eviware.soapui.plugins.auto.factories.AutoDiscoveryMethodFac exception at background. As I have to use swagger export and import functionality, I could not get rid of soap ui swagger plugin. Kinldy let me know how to fix this issue.

I believe that it does not affect any functional behaviour.

You can safely ignore it, it has been there for couple of reasons now.

You should be fine even there is exception.

If you do not want to see the exception, then need to remove the files from %USER_HOME%\.soapui\plugins directory. However, if you need to use swagger plugin, you need to keep the file in plugins directory
