[jira] [Created] (SAMZA-1678) Remove powermock dependency

Cameron Lee created SAMZA-1678:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Remove powermock dependency
                 Key: SAMZA-1678
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SAMZA-1678
             Project: Samza
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: test
            Reporter: Cameron Lee


Powermock is powerful, but it can also be hard to write and maintain tests that use it because it has to do some complex things to provide its functionality. It should be possible avoid using Powermock in tests, although it may be required to refactor some classes (e.g. add some "test" constructors, expose some instance methods to tests) in order to remove it.

By removing it, we can avoid more Powermock tests getting added in the future. This can help enforce clean and testable class design, since Powermock will not be an option for testing classes.
