Thank you for reporting this! Go 1.19 was EOL 2023-08-08, and Go 1.17 was EOL 2022-08-02.

I don't think we can support older Go versions, but as a workaround you can download a binary release from https://github.com/gotestyourself/gotestsum/releases. That should continue to work with older Go versions.
