Start with the failing Ruby 2.4 CI run and inspect test-unit-ruby-core-1.0.15/lib/core_assertions.rb around line 390, where the SyntaxError is reported. Determine the smallest compatibility change or dependency adjustment supported by the project, then verify that the Ruby 2.4 CI job completes without this syntax error.
