Description
I have a JPMS project with module-info.java file. And I have split package issue when I'm trying to compile the project.
Java 8 public support ends in 2020. It's pretty soon. IMHO it makes sense to start developing Testcontainers using newer version of Java and targeting Java 8 bytecode.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the project's module-info.java setup and the compilation configuration implicated by the split-package issue. Check how Java 9 support and Java 8 bytecode targeting would interact, then define completion as compiling the project without the split-package failure while retaining the stated Java 8 target.
