Serenity BDD与Report Portal集成冲突致测试报告空白求助

近期完成BDD Cucumber框架与Report Portal的集成，测试在Circle CI环境运行时，出现Serenity BDD Cucumber测试报告空白的问题，排查发现由以下报错导致：

注释掉Report Portal核心依赖后，错误消失，Circle CI中能正常显示BDD报告，但Report Portal无测试数据，说明二者存在兼容性冲突。当前使用的Serenity依赖版本如下：

<!--        // net.serenity-bdd serenity-core-->
        <serenity.version>1.2.4</serenity.version>
        <serenity.maven.version>1.2.4</serenity.maven.version>
<!--        // net.serenity-bdd serenity-cucumber-->
        <serenity.cucumber.version>1.1.27</serenity.cucumber.version>

1. 降级Report Portal集成包版本 #

报错核心是serenity-reportportal-integration:1.5.8调用了Serenity 1.2.4不存在的TestStep.getStartTime()方法（返回类型为ZonedDateTime）。该集成包的1.3.x系列适配Serenity 1.x版本，可将依赖降级：

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.invictum</groupId>
    <artifactId>serenity-reportportal-integration</artifactId>
    <version>1.3.0</version>
</dependency>

2. 升级Serenity版本到兼容层级 #

若项目允许升级，可将Serenity版本升级到支持serenity-reportportal-integration:1.5.8的2.x系列，同时同步升级serenity-cucumber版本保证依赖一致：

<serenity.version>2.9.0</serenity.version>
<serenity.maven.version>2.9.0</serenity.maven.version>
<serenity.cucumber.version>2.9.0</serenity.cucumber.version>

注意：升级后需验证原有测试用例是否正常运行，避免API变更带来的适配问题。

3. 排除集成包中的冲突依赖 #

若无法调整版本，可尝试排除serenity-reportportal-integration中引入的高版本Serenity依赖，强制使用当前1.2.4版本，但此方法可能导致集成包部分功能失效，需充分测试：

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.invictum</groupId>
    <artifactId>serenity-reportportal-integration</artifactId>
    <version>1.5.8</version>
    <exclusions>
        <exclusion>
            <groupId>net.serenity-bdd</groupId>
            <artifactId>serenity-core</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
        <exclusion>
            <groupId>net.serenity-bdd</groupId>
            <artifactId>serenity-cucumber</artifactId>
        </exclusion>
    </exclusions>
</dependency>
