Reverted the settings.gradle.kts changes and moved the plugin version declarations inline to the plugin blocks where they're used. Build and Kafka smoke test verified to work correctly. c4ae83f

The KafkaTest smoke test was failing with a
ClassNotFoundException: org.springframework.kafka.retrytopic.RetryTopicConfigurationerror. This was caused by a version incompatibility between Spring Boot 2.7.18 and the older Spring Kafka 2.3.1.RELEASE dependency.Root Cause
The
RetryTopicConfigurationclass was introduced in Spring Kafka 2.7.0, but the Kafka smoke test app was using Spring Kafka 2.3.1.RELEASE, which predates this class. Spring Boot 2.7.18's autoconfiguration expects this class to be available, leading to the failure.Changes Made
smoke-tests/apps/Kafka/build.gradle.ktsfrom2.3.1.RELEASEto2.8.11com.github.ben-manes.versionsplugin insettings.gradle.ktsto fix build configurationTesting
All KafkaTest variations now pass successfully:
The upgrade maintains compatibility with the existing test logic while resolving the Spring Boot autoconfiguration issue.
Fixes #90.
