Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.18.1

I've configured maven-surefire-plugin in pom.xml like:

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-surefire-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>2.18.1</version>
  <configuration>
    <suiteXmlFiles>
      <suiteXmlFile>testng.xml</suiteXmlFile>
    </suiteXmlFiles>
  </configuration>
</plugin>

But when I hit mvn install, it results into following error:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.18.1:test (default-test) on project MavenTest: Execution default-test of goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:2.18.1:test failed: There was an error in the forked process

if you used IDEA and Maven, try toggle "Skip Tests" Mode

The line:

[ERROR] java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: org/testng/annotations/Test : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0

Shows that there is a miss-match of java versions.
For example, you are trying to run the test process with a java version older than the one used to compile the test classes.

You should align all steps to use the same java version.

I hope this helps.
