Newest Testng version that supports JDK 1.6

[Jennifer Li]

[re-sent..]

Hello All,

I've been using Testng 5.5 for JDK 1.5 for a long time, and now would like to upgrade to a newer version. The latest 6.9.4 requires Java 7 for compiling that my environment doesn't support yet. I wonder what the newest version of Testng that supports JDK 1.6 for compiling. Also, is there a plan to have the latest version supporting JDK 1.6 for compiling.

Thank you!
Jennifer

Hi Cedric,

Thank you for your information!

However, when running TestNG 6.8.21 on JRE 1.6.0_07, the following exception was thrown. It seems that jcommander is not available at the runtime for some reason. Any thought about it please.

==============
bash-3.2# ant test
Buildfile: build.xml

test:
   [testng] Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/beust/jcommander/ParameterException
   [testng] Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.beust.jcommander.ParameterException

As per the pom file, JCommander 1.5 is the version that you would need.
