1. TestNG + Selenium framework - using TestNG Jar 7.4.0
2. Report Portal Properties and log4j2.xml supplied in src/test/main/resources
3. Listener com.epam.reportportal.testng.ReportPortalTestNGListener added in the TestNG suite xml file from which is triggerred.

Hi @DzmitryHumianiuk @HardNorth Can I request your insights on this issue.

[HardNorth]

@vinnus8660 That's happens because you project refers old version of our client-java library. Please study your dependency tree and remove or add exclusions on transitive dependency. You can do this with commands mvn dependency:tree for Maven or gradle dependencies for Gradle.

@HardNorth Thanks for responding! I have tried to fix it, but nothing worked so far, appreciate your further inputs.

I'm using the eclipse testng manual plugin downloaded from https://github.com/testng-team/testng-eclipse to run the tests, I have upgraded my project to use testng 7.8.0 and other dependencies latest versions as well.

My current dependencies in project are:

TestNG Eclipse Plugin 7.8.0 slf4j-api - 2.0.7 agent-java-testng - 5.3.1 logger-java-log4j - 5.1.8 selenium-server - 4.8.1

I'm not sure which of the above dependency is referring to the older older version of client-java.

I'm configuring the below listener in suite.xml file but still the same error.

<listener class-name="com.epam.reportportal.testng.ReportPortalTestNGListener" />

@vinnus8660 Sorry, I don't provide consultancy for apart of the area of Report Portal libraries. What I can say, this class is here: https://github.com/reportportal/client-java/blob/develop/src/main/java/com/epam/reportportal/utils/MemoizingSupplier.java

It is here for a long time, more than 3 years.

To fix your case you need to find out which library in your project overrides our client-java library with a very old version.
