[Codelab Issue] Testing Codelab 5.1, Step 4 - App does not compile

[rakesh-sh2020]

Describe the problem The app won't compile with Android Studio 4.2.1

In which lesson and step of the codelab can this issue be found? This numbering is so confusing!

Advanced Android in Kotlin 05.1: Testing Basics Lesson 4, Step 1

How to reproduce? Check out the project and switch to the starter_code branch and try and compile the project

Versions

1. What version of Android Studio are you using? 4.2.1

Additional information The error is e: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/bind/JAXBException

codelab: advanced-android-kotlin

Code was recently updated and works fine with 4.2.1 (also the build is green). That error usually means there's something fishy with your JDK installation. Some searches suggest setting Java 1.8 as default.

I can't compile it either.

The same for me. I tried both updating Gradle version to support my Java 17 version and downgrading Java version to 16 to support project's Gradle version

If using a M1, need to upgrade room version to fix a compiler error
