Cookbook bootstrap NoMethodError: undefined method `property' for #<Class:0x000000035301a8>

[SnufflesC137]

I went through the default.rb and the templates and they all seem to be in order but no matter what, I cannot bootstrap/install the cookbook in ubuntu (vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64 3.13.0-133-generic) or Centos 7 (3.10.0-693.el7.x86_64) using Chef 13.5.3-1

Any help is appreciated

Thanks

@SnufflesC137 I had the same issue when using kitchen test.
The problem is that this cookbook is outdated and only works with chef 12.
So I configured kitchen to use chef 12 by specifying following in the .kitchen.yml:

driver_config:
  require_chef_omnibus: "12"
