./kafka-console-producer.sh --broker-list localhost:9092 --topic testing
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: kafka.utils.CommandLineUtils$.parseKeyValueArgs(Lscala/collection/Iterable;)Ljava/util/Properties;

This kind of error is usually related to mismatched versions of Kafka jars. If this is the case, resetting your CLASSPATH should do the trick:

export CLASSPATH=""

Well, `kafka-run-class` should be setting up the classpath itself – OneCricketeer Feb 10 '20 at 15:36

Looks like you either have conflicting jars in your classpath or you have mismatched versions of kafka broker and kafka client.
