Description

Environment:

VS Code Version: 1.102.0-insider
Extension Version: from vscode java test 0.43.0 -> 0.43.1
JDK Type & Version: 24
OS Type & Version: windows
Step to Reproduce:

install version 0.43.0 of the Extension
upgrade the extension to versoin 0.43.1

Expected Behavior:
{extensionpath}/server/jacocoagent.jar should be updated from version 0,8.12.xxxxx to 0.8.13.xxxx

Actual Behavior:
https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-java-test/blob/bae1928c27a2735c513072849b3e9d8542632980/scripts/buildJdtlsExt.js#L82
from the scripts it seems that when upgrading since the jar was present since last version it's not being overridden, causing a version mismatch and therefore causing code coverage not work with java 24

Workaround:
Uninstall the extension and install it clean

Research direction

Start with scripts/buildJdtlsExt.js at the linked line and inspect how jacocoagent.jar is handled when an existing extension is upgraded. Verify that the bundled jar is replaced from 0.8.12.x to 0.8.13.x and that the Java 24 coverage scenario no longer needs a clean reinstall.
