java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 'java.util.Set org.junit.platform.engine.TestDescriptor.getAncestors() JUnit5 - Java17 - IntelliJ

I'm migrating a project from Java 11 to 17 at the same time move from Junit4 to Junit5. I modify all test, and add this dependencies

 <dependency>
             <groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId>
             <artifactId>junit-jupiter-api</artifactId>
             <version>5.9.1</version>
         </dependency>
         <dependency>
             <groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId>
             <artifactId>junit-jupiter-engine</artifactId>
             <version>5.9.1</version>
         </dependency>
         <dependency>
            <groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId>
            <artifactId>junit-jupiter-params</artifactId>
            <version>5.9.1</version>
        </dependency>

but when I try to run a test, it executes the body of the method bu at the end throws this exception

I know that there is similar questions but all of them works with build, I'm using maven 3.9.6. I've already check the dependecy tree I can't share it here but here is the part of the test dependencies

[INFO] +- org.junit.jupiter:junit-jupiter-api:jar:5.9.1:compile

thanks for your advise

I want to figure out how to syncronize the junit versions in compile and runtime, since I think the problem is because they are different, but I don't find the difference

Solution

  • The definition for the dependencies in JUnit Jupiter you should use the BOM approach:

      <dependencyManagement>
    <dependencies>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>org.junit</groupId>
        <artifactId>junit-bom</artifactId>
        <version>5.10.2</version>
        <scope>import</scope>
        <type>pom</type>
      </dependency>
      ..
    ..
  ..

    That should be defined before all other parts in your dependencyManagement...
