From googling, it's because the maven settings are pointing at an older java version, but OSX Yosemite requires Java Version > 1.7.0_71 because of https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8027686

I've got a change I want to make but I can't run the tests...

Any ideas?

Strange. I've just run the tests (mvn clean verify -Pkarma) on Yosemite using both 1.7.0_71 and 1.8.0_25 (both using Maven 3.2.5) and they ran fine.

Is that the same command you used?

[petems]

Yeah, it's particularly an issue with the way that boxen runs java and maven it turns out.

Closing for this: boxen/puppet-java#51

Thanks for letting us know.
