[jira] [Created] (DAFFODIL-2067) Compile dependency on JUnit4

Steve Lawrence created DAFFODIL-2067:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: Compile dependency on JUnit4
                 Key: DAFFODIL-2067
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-2067
             Project: Daffodil
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: TDML Runner
            Reporter: Steve Lawrence
            Assignee: Steve Lawrence
             Fix For: 2.3.0


The TDML Runner has a compile time dependency on JUnit4. This means that the Junit4 jar and its dependencies are included in our binary distributions, and that affects licensing. The new dependencies do have compatible licenses with Apache, but it really seems unnecessary to include something intended for testing as a compile dependency.

To avoid that and any potential licensing issues, we should remove this compile dependency and handle it somehow else, e.g. reflection.
