Hi Rory, Regarding Apache Kafka, we are getting closer (the recently released Gradle 4.1 helped), but there are a few blockers before our test suite passes:
1. EasyMock: https://github.com/easymock/easymock/issues/193. There is a PR (https://github.com/easymock/easymock/pull/200), but it's blocked by https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHADE-258. 2. PowerMock: https://github.com/powermock/powermock/issues/783 Generally, a final release of ASM 6 and a working maven-shade-plugin would go a long way. Hope that helps.
