On Apple M1 Max with Ventura, I'have this error when I lauch a test :

Cannot invoke "net.serenitybdd.rest.decorators.request.RequestSpecificationDecorated.getLastResponse()" because the return value of "java.lang.ThreadLocal.get()" is null

I doubt it's OS-related, probabay more related to parallel execution if you are doing that. What version are you using?

[jeanemvista]

I'm using : 3.6.12

You can find the project test here : https://github.com/Bravo-XWB/bravo-e2e-tests

[wakaleo]

You are using the RestAssured when() method followed by the Serenity then() method. To use the Serenity then() you must first use the Serenity when(), e.g.

  @When("I ask for a pet using Kitty's ID: {0}")
  public void whenIAskForAPetWithId(Long id) {
    System.out.println("id = " + id);
    Response response = SerenityRest.when().get("https://petstore.swagger.io/v2/pet/" + id);
    System.out.println("response = " + response);
  }

  @Then("I get Kitty as result")
  public void thenISeeKittyAsResult() {
    System.out.println("thenISeeKittyAsResult");
    SerenityRest.then().body("name", Matchers.equalTo("Kitty"));
    System.out.println("ok");
  }

Thanks for your helps.
