OK - this is interesting.

Basically what is happening is that magic has sorted all of the projects 
in avalon based on dependencies.  In principal the 
planet/facilities/finder/impl project should have been built before the 
test project and at the end of the impl build the impl jar should have 
been copied to magic's cache.

The actual error your seeing is because Merlin is being told to load a 
container that includes the finder impl jar in its classloader 
definition and merlin is looking in it's cache and not finding it.

So first of all:

   1. if the following file exists we know its not a magic
      build sequence issue:

planet/facilities/finder/impl/target/deliverables/jars/avalon-finder-impl-SNAPSHOT.jar

   2. magic should have copied this file to the magic cache
      so you should have this under something like (from memory):

${user.home}/.magic/cache/avalon/finder/jars/avalon-finder-impl-SNAPSHOT.jar

If both the above files exist then we have an issue with the setup of 
the cache in the testcase.
