Error testing Resource Provider - java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: software.amazon.cloudformation.<projectName>.HandlerWrapper

[shantgup]

I'm following this tutorial here [1], and creating a Resource Provider using the cfn CLI.

When I run "sam local invoke TestEntrypoint --event sam-tests/create.json" I get error below.

Invoking software.amazon.cloudformation.command.HandlerWrapper::testEntrypoint (java8)

Now the file does not exist in my "src/main/java/software/amazon/cloudformation/<project_name>/"

But I see 3 of them in /target/classes/software/amazon/cloudformation/<project_name>. There's HandlerWrapper.class, HandlerWrapper$1.class, HandlerWrapper$2.class, HandlerWrapper$3.class.

Also, my build steps have been as follows:

1. cfn generate
2. Build project in IntelliJ Idea
3. sam local invoke TestEntrypoint --event sam-tests/create.json

Any help to troubleshoot / fix this would be greatly appreciated.

Update: Jacob Fuss at sam-cli said that this is because the file does not contain the required files. Looking at the /target/aws-cloudformation-command-handler-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar/, I see that it is an empty folder. Opening another issue for this.
