This happened to me, try changing your java jdk and the default jdk in your ide. make sure the build jdk and the ide jdk are the same. im using JDK 1.8.0_151.
honestly i don't know WHY this caused the tests to fail for me, but it did. dependency issues in the chain i think. also you can disable tests and it will work, but im sure nobody would recommend that. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "bitcoinj" group.
