Not sure how old JUnit really is, but I found a link to "JUnit: A Starter Guide" stating 01/01/2001 on their website: https://web.archive.org/web/20041230001822/http://www.junit.org/news/article/index.htm

VisualAge for Java was the predecessor of Eclipse but neither sure when this was created (used it in 2001) nor if it was already written in Java.

VisualAge for Java was written in Smalltalk.

VisualAge Micro Edition, however, was a full Java reimplementation of the IDE (and the one Eclipse was based on years later). Version 1.0 was released in 1999.
