java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: scala/Product$class for gradle JUNIT test

Question

I have a scala application with a build.gradle (using gradleVersion 4.4.1). I am using the JUnit Framework. The dependency and test task sections of my gradle.build is below

dependencies {
    compile 'org.scala-lang:scala-library:2.11.12'
    compile 'org.apache.spark:spark-core_2.11:2.0.2'
    compile 'org.apache.spark:spark-sql_2.11:2.0.2'
    compile 'org.apache.spark:spark-hive_2.11:2.0.2'
    compile 'com.typesafe.play:play-json_2.12:2.6.9'
    compile 'com.fasterxml.jackson.module:jackson-module-jsonSchema:2.9.8'
    testCompile 'org.scalatest:scalatest_2.11:3.0.0'
    testCompile 'junit:junit:4.12'
}


test {
    testLogging.showStandardStreams = true
}

When I run gradle test

Task :test FAILED

com.someOrg.gdpschemautils.JsonToSchemaSpec > initializationError FAILED
    java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError
        Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

1 test completed, 1 failed

When I run gradle test --debug

19:20:21.303 [DEBUG] [TestEventLogger] com.someOrg.gdpschemautils.JsonToSchemaSpec > initializationError FAILED
19:20:21.303 [DEBUG] [TestEventLogger]     java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: scala/Product$class

Below is The App Structure.

It seems scala classes are not available for the unit tests at run time, I have added testCompile for the scala-library as well in my dependencies and I still get the same error. None of my unit tests will run, rather JsonToSchemaSpec or others.

Such things usually happen when you accidentally mix different incompatible versions of scala/spark/scaletest. See this for example NoClassDefFoundError: scala/Product$class
