Hi Mehdi, Could you share your code and then we can help you to figure out the problem? Actually JavaTestParams can work well but there is some compatibility issue for JavaDeveloperApiExample. We have removed JavaDeveloperApiExample temporary at Spark 2.0 in order to not confuse users. Since the solution for the compatibility issue has been figured out, we will add it back at 2.1.
