using evosuite from command line

When I try to use the EvoSuite testing tool from the command line, I get the following error:

Fatal crash on main EvoSuite process. Class using seed 1428172877144. Configuration id : null 
java.lang.RunTimeExceptionConfiguration:Did not manage to automatically find tools.jar. Use –Dtools_jar_location = <path> properly 
    at org.evosuite.runtime.agent.ToolsJarLocator.getLoaderForToolsJar<ToolsJarLocator.java:71> ~[evosuite-0.1.1.jar:na] 
    at org.evosuite.Evosuite.parseCommandLine<Evosuite.java:152> ~[evosuite-0.1.1.jar:na] 
    at org.evosuite.Evosuite.main<Evosuite.java:304> ~[evosuite-0.1.1.jar:na]

Could someone help me with this?

Make sure you use your JDK to run Evosuite, not the JRE. That may mean either going into the JDK /bin dir and running from there or fully quantifying the executable java binary file when you run (JDK..../bin/java.exe on windows for example).

Copy the tools.jar from JDK to your JRE lib folder...it worked for me..The problem, its not able to find the tools.jar.

As pointed out by Makoto, you need to use a -D option. Note: no space between variable name and assigned value, ie -Dx=v is OK, whereas -Dx = v is wrong. So:

java -jar evosuite-0.1.1.jar -Dtools_jar_location="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_75\lib"
