> Our use of static methods for internal APIs such as the [RestClient class|https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/9ab140d5419d735baae45aff56ffce7f5622744f/connect/runtime/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/connect/runtime/rest/RestClient.java] and [Plugins::compareAndSwapLoaders|https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/9ab140d5419d735baae45aff56ffce7f5622744f/connect/runtime/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/connect/runtime/isolation/Plugins.java#L123-L129] makes testing difficult, especially with the in-progress migration from EasyMock/PowerMock to Mockito.
> We should remove these static methods and replace them with non-static methods that can be more easily mocked.
