@rgladwell I am facing the same error. Please share the solution.

I think this is a maven issue? Try upgrading the maven-failsafe-plugin version.

[ashishgupta0007]

I have upgraded the maven-failsafe-plugin version to 2.22.1 but still getting same error.

[wakaleo]

Are you using a recent version of Serenity?

What was the fix for this issue? I am also facing same issue using serenity 1.9.17 version And Maven failsafe version is -2.22.1
