There are two errors in your Org mode file on the BEGIN_SRC and END_SRC
lines.

With this code:

 * Test

 #+CAPTION: Test
 #+BEGIN_SRC java
    // some code
 #+END_SRC

I get a figure with a caption when exporting to LaTeX:

 \section{Test}
 \label{sec-1}

 \begin{figure}[H]
 \begin{verbatim}
 // some code
 \end{verbatim}\caption{Test}

 \end{figure}

You don't need to name the source code block, although it is typically a
good idea to do so.

hth,
Tom
