PowerMock TestNG module depends on deleted class and not working with latest version of test library #1173
Description
Background
When trying to use PowerMock (2.0.9) with the latest version of TestNG (7.11.0) no tests are found due to a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/testng/IObjectFactory. After looking at TestNG's docs, saw that the referenced IObjectFactory interface was deprecated starting version 7.5.0 and deleted in 7.10.0.
