WordPress 5.8 is too old for WooCommerce 7.3

[BrianHenryIE]

Prerequisites

• I have carried out troubleshooting steps and I believe I have found a bug.
• I have searched for similar bugs in both open and closed issues and cannot find a duplicate.

Describe the bug

Following the instructions in the README results in a looping in terminal of:

Waiting for testing environment

and in the Docker logs of:

Warning: The package could not be installed. "Your WordPress version is 5.8, however the uploaded plugin requires 5.9."
Warning: The 'woocommerce' plugin could not be found.
Error: No plugins installed.

The WordPress version is defined in node_modules/@woocommerce/e2e-environment/bin/docker-compose.sh.

Solved by editing package.json to "docker:up": "WP_VERSION=6.1 npx wc-e2e docker:up",

Questions/Requests:

@woocommerce/e2e-environment hasn't been updated in almost a year. Is there a way to use @master instead of ^0.3.0? I see woocommerce/woocommerce's .nvmrc is at v16 compared to this repo's v12 so I presume as I learn from the tests in WooCommerce itself they might not work in my project using the older version.

WordPress Environment

No response

Isolating the problem

• I have deactivated other plugins and confirmed this bug occurs when only WooCommerce plugin is active.
• This bug happens with a default WordPress theme active, or Storefront.
• I can reproduce this bug consistently using the steps above.
