Issue while building with Java 1.7

[Ashish Uniyal]

Hi,

I have to run my test in Java 1.7 Environment. I specified a maven goal.

But when I did, I am getting below error :

Tests run: 1, Failures: 0, Errors: 1, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 0.025 sec <<< FAILURE! - in features.xxxxxx.New

This issue never came when I build using maven in Java 1.8. 

Can you please help. I am stuck.

Thanks a lot

Selenium 3 and Serenity 1.5.x require Java 8.

Hi John,

 

Does this mean that if we are using Selenium 3, but an older version of Serenity like 1.1.x, still we will require Java 1.8 ?

I was trying to resolve this for like 2 hours.

 

Thanks a lot for the quick response John. Much appreciated.

Regards

Ashish
