> We are using the commons-httpclient:commons-httpclient dependency for the integration tests to support the Hadoop's LocalJobRunner. It was added because it is a dependency of MapReduce, but it was not in the client jar at that time. It's not the case anymore.
> I tried to remove this first-level dependency and all test passed locally so I think we can remove this without any issue. The other dependencies (hadoop, hive, hbase) coming with their commons-httpclient correctly.
> Side note:
> The lib is not maintained from 2011(?) and has some security issues.
> http://hc.apache.org/httpclient-3.x/
> "The Commons HttpClient project is now end of life, and is no longer being developed."
> I hope that the other projects throwing out this lib later.
