------------------------------------------

             Summary: Rework FlinkKafkaConsumerBestTest to not use Java reflection for dependency injection
                 Key: FLINK-8296
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-8296
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Kafka Connector, Tests
            Reporter: Tzu-Li (Gordon) Tai
            Assignee: Tzu-Li (Gordon) Tai
             Fix For: 1.5.0, 1.4.1


The current {{FlinkKafkaConsumerBaseTest}} is heavily relying on Java reflection for dependency injection. Using reflection to compose unit tests really should be a last resort, and indicates that the tests there are highly implementation-specific, and that we should make the design more testable.
