@stempler The test successfully passes when executed locally. Any insights on why it fails in this environment?

@emanuelaepure10 If you look at the build logs you can see there is a compilation error:

    Please remove or make sure it appears in the correct subdirectory of the classpath.

It seems the build requires a newer Java version than 8, which is configured in both CI workflows.

Following the successful merging of these changes, the subsequent steps are as follows:

1. Re-run hale-platform to incorporate the updated version.
2. Integrate the modifications into my fork, hale-build-support.
3. Verify the impact of the changes on hale studio.
