Nice.

@headius headius added this to the JRuby 9.1.6.0 milestone Sep 22, 2016

We routinely see an error in JRuby runs on Travis when loading the file capybara/node/actions.
The reason for this is that it contains squiggly heredocs with delimiters with quotes (<<~'JS' to be specific).
link: https://github.com/teamcapybara/capybara/blob/3.2.0/lib/capybara/node/actions.rb#L310-L331

JRuby couldn't parse squiggly heredocs with single quotes in the delimeter until 9.1.6.0.
link: jruby/jruby#4169

Because capybara isn't a runtime dependency for spinach, making our JRuby runs on Travis use a newer version of JRuby doesn't actually affect our users.
The alternative, getting capybara's maintainers to accept a PR removing the quotes from the heredoc delimeters in that file, seems like it would take much more effort, for very little benefit.

As a side note, I have no clue what the benefit of adding quotes (single or double) to a heredoc delimeter is. Those capybara heredocs work fine with or without quotes in the delimeter.
