jbpm create process using Fluent API？

According to JBPM's user guide about Fluent API, I try to create a process using Fluent API of drools' 7.62.0 version, and follows is my example code:

public static void testFluentCreateBPMN2() {
        String processId = "process1";
        ProcessBuilderFactory factory = ProcessBuilderFactories.get();
        // Create process builder
        Process process = factory.processBuilder(processId)
                // package and name
                .packageName("org.jbpm")
                .name("My process")
                // start node
                .startNode(1).name("Start").done()
                // Add variable of type string
                .variable(Variable.var("pepe", String.class))
                // Add exception handler
                .exceptionHandler(IllegalArgumentException.class, Dialect.JAVA, "System.out.println(\"Exception\");")
                // script node in Java language that prints "action"
                .actionNode(2).name("Action")
                .action(Dialect.JAVA,
                        "System.out.println(\"Action\");").done()
                // end node
                .endNode(3).name("End").done()
                // connections
                .connection(1, 2)
                .connection(2, 3)
                .build();
        KieHelper kieHelper = new KieHelper();

        KieSession kieSession = kieHelper.build().newKieSession();
        Map<String, Object> maps = new HashMap<>();
        maps.put("pepe", "Hello World");
        kieSession.startProcess(processId, maps);
    }

when I try to execute this code, a error occurs which execute ProcessBuilderFactories.get() follows:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
    at org.jbpm.process.core.impl.XmlProcessDumperFactory.newXmlProcessDumperFactory(XmlProcessDumperFactory.java:24)

    at org.example.App.testFluentCreateBPMN2(App.java:28)
    at org.example.App.main(App.java:23)

I feel very puzzled about this problem. And do you can give me it's solution or some advice? Thank you very much.

Are you including in your code the dependency to jbpm-bpmn2 or any other implementation of the interface XmlProcessDumperFactoryService?

jbpm-bpmn2 has this one:

public class XmlProcessDumperFactoryServiceImpl implements XmlProcessDumperFactoryService {

public XmlProcessDumper newXmlProcessDumper() {
    return XmlBPMNProcessDumper.INSTANCE;
}

}
